Form 20-0995 · Supplemental Claim
Supplemental Claim Drafter
The only post-AMA appeal lane that lets you submit NEW evidence. File within 1 year of the prior decision to preserve the original effective date — critical for back-pay. We draft the “Identification of New and Relevant Evidence” section in the rater-friendly shape: one paragraph per piece of evidence, tied to a specific denied issue, with a clear ask at the end.

Optional supporting authority
Already have lay or medical evidence? Precedent is a legitimate addition.
A Supplemental Claim turns on new factual evidence — buddy statements, fresh medical, a stronger nexus letter. If your case is already strong on the facts and you want to add persuasive authority showing the Board has granted on analogous facts, the brief slots in cleanly as one piece of your evidence package.
Two ways to research examples for your 20-0995:
- · Free — search the BVA corpus and copy citations yourself at /precedent.
- · Free Brief — a PDF of selected Board decisions. Check the facts, citations and relevance before attaching anything to your 20-0995. Other Board decisions do not bind your case.
Examples do not replace evidence your claim needs. If you need a medical opinion, the draft tool at /nexus can help organize a draft for a clinician to review.
