That is to be expected, since the person is leaving the regular forces and will be dealt with by Veterans Affairs Canada so that there is no delay. But there is a delay when it comes to claims. Suppose that the person has been a veteran for two years and goes to see his or her doctor, who makes a diagnosis of post-traumatic stress syndrome and recommends an application to Veterans Affairs Canada.
If such an application is made, how long will it take to process the file and indicate whether the claim has been approved or not?
