Find an official VA Disability Benefits Questionnaire

Every link below opens a PDF on VA's own site. There are no copies hosted here, deliberately — VA revises these forms, and a local copy is correct the day it is saved and quietly wrong afterwards.

A DBQ documents clinical facts: diagnosis, history, testing, symptoms, and functional effect. It does not grant service connection or set a rating. Whether a condition is connected to service can be a separate medical question, and the legal decision belongs to VA. See what you are being asked for before completing one.

Searching for a condition rather than a form title? Sleep apnea and OSA are under Sleep Apnea; asthma and COPD under Respiratory Conditions; migraine under Headaches; rhinitis, sinusitis and post-nasal drip under Sinusitis, Rhinitis; GERD and reflux under Esophageal Disorders; PTSD review under PTSD Review.

Separation Health Assessment

Part A is a veteran self-assessment for the separation process, not a clinician-completed condition questionnaire. It is listed apart so it is not reached for by mistake.

Questionnaires VA does not release publicly

These are listed by VA as unavailable for public use. They are shown here so an unavailable form is not mistaken for a broken link. Do not substitute an unofficial copy.

The absence of a public Medical Opinion questionnaire does not stop a qualified clinician from writing a reasoned medical opinion in another appropriate format. That opinion is often the evidence a causation or aggravation question actually turns on.

Written for clinicians. This describes what VA asks for and what the adjudicator does with it. It is not clinical guidance and does not tell you what to conclude. Phrases such as “at least as likely as not” are legal standards of proof, not statements of clinical confidence.
