Get Clear Guidance on Military Pensions and Veteran Compensation Claims

Many former ADF members were not medically discharged when they should have been, or had DVA claims that were under-assessed.

This may have happened due to a number of reasons such as:

Limited medical evidence at the time

A person riding a bicycle on a city street during daytime

Lack of guidance through the process

A collection of paperclip icons arranged in a grid pattern.

Conditions that developed or worsened after discharge

A person sitting on a bench in a park surrounded by trees and grass.

You may still have options to have your situation reassessed.

Common Questions About CSC and DVA Claims

  • Yes. You can apply for a retrospective medical discharge years after leaving the ADF.

    CSC will assess whether your medical condition at the time of discharge meant you should have been medically transitioned. If successful, this may result in eligibility for an invalidity pension, depending on your assessed capacity for civilian employment.

  • CSC and DVA assess claims differently and serve different purposes.

    CSC focuses on your capacity to work in civilian employment at the time of discharge, which determines eligibility for an invalidity pension.

    DVA focuses on service-related conditions and compensation, regardless of your discharge classification.

    Because of this, a condition accepted by DVA does not automatically mean you will qualify for a CSC pension.

    We support you with you CSC claims.

  • Strong, relevant evidence is essential for a CSC pension applications.

    This may include:

    • Medical records from around your discharge

    • Specialist reports

    • ADF and DVA records

    • Evidence of how your condition affects your ability to work

    • Employment history and qualifications

    The clearer and more complete your evidence, the better CSC can assess your claim and determine the appropriate outcome.
