Request For Special Consideration Related To Disability: Fill & Download for Free

Yes. Your local federal building should have a VA office where you can take your ID and DD214 (or DD215 like me, since somehow they got the entry and separation dates backwards, and actually I had 4 DD214’s and a DD215, because you get a DD214 each time you reenlist). They will get you switched over to the VA. Then you will be processed through compensation, since you have a disability to determine the extent, validity, affect upon your quality of life, and if it was service connected. (Your discharge papers should indicate some of it, along with service and medical records.)You will also be taken to benefits where you’ll get your picture taken and then sent a VA ID.Then they will assign you to a clinic and a primary care doctor, get you an appointment (This part can take a while.)Somewhere along the line over the next year or two, you will get told about if you were awarded a disability or pension or just medical benefits. You also get eye care, but dental is just for retirees and those at I THINK 90% or higher disability rating. Or if it is required due to service reasons. For instance even if I wasn’t at 100% service connected I would still get dental care because they had to peel my face up, remove the teeth, and rebuild the jaws and put in implants.A lot depends, although coming out of the service with an already documented service connected disability tends to speed things up. I was med boarded and came out with 100% service connected with both pension and disability, a wheelchair, spinal hard brace, and a lot of metal pins, screws, plates, and knees. (You will only get one or the other, not both, but they give you the higher of the two.)And just because you haven’t gotten your primary care doctor yet or haven’t gotten to see them yet does not mean that you cannot get treatment once they have assigned your benefits and issued you a VA ID. In your case you will want to setup with mental health as soon as your benefits are assigned.EDIT: (Adding some information which should help.)Home - VA/DoD eBenefitsExpanded Commissary Access! Jan 1: New law provides Veterans and caregivers with access to commissaries, exchanges, and morale, welfare, and recreation services. Who is eligible?https://www.ebenefits.va.gov/ebenefits/homepageYou should also register at eBenefits. I suggest that you register first, and you’ll need your SSN and basic data to do so, before you go down to the federal building VA office. That way you can also get verified for access there. If you are working for the DOD you may have a DoD ID badge or common access card and this will already be setup for you.On ebenefits you can see almost everything related to your service and your VA benefits, including all benefits available to you. You can also order a copy of your service record, and just about everything else related to your service. And you can request pension, compensation, increases in benefits/compensation, special services and programs, etc. It will confusing and hard to find some things, but a little time and effort will get you through it.Oh, and beware, they screen you going into the building. If you have special considerations, you should tell them up front. As an example the first time I went to the one here in the federal building, it was a nightmare. I’m full of metal and a rolling trainwreck with anxiety that is triggered if there are too many people close to me. Which defines the entry to the one here. By the time they got to me, my anxiety had hit so bad that I was trying to tear the rivets out of my hard brace to get it off of me. It fastened and adjusted from the back and required someone to get me into it and out of it. So you can imagine the initial reaction security had seeing this guy in a wheelchair bleeding out of his hands all in a blind panic, in a Federal building. I got lucky I guess because someone explained it was a panic attack and the next thing I knew I was rolled over to the side by their monitoring station with someone talking me down. So give them a heads up about metal in your body and any special considerations. (And by the way, since that incident security there has always taken the time to roll me to the side as soon as I come in, ask me if I have any weapons, explosives, covid vaccination, etc before having someone roll me to the elevator, up, and then down the 3rd floor hall to the VA office. They are mostly vets and even those who aren’t have been trained how to deal with disabled folks. And unfortunately they see too many of us lately.)

Hi Roohi,Cross browser testing is always on top for a smart QA tester. however, sometimes it is a request from business or sometimes it is Engineering team's demand to consider a particular list of browsers while performing testing.Below are the key points which a tester should keep in mind while performing cross browser testing:a)List of browsers and their versionsThere are 2 ways that user can gather the information of trending browsers and it depends on targeted audience browser usage trends.:- Google analytic- BusinessThis will help you to get an idea about your audience and hence you can arrange the browser priority list.b)List of OS to test browser compatibility with OSIt is very necessary to figure out the OS configuration too to have a quality cross browser testing.c)Cosmetics view verification:Issues which are being faced during cross browser testing are related to Font sizes, page alignments and div arrangementsd)Always clear the cache so that there should not be any fake issue.e)Consider all the devices like tablets, Mobiles on which your application is being entertained.f)Tools which you are using for cross browser testingIn order to make cross browser testing more speedy, few tools are being used which provide you support of multiple browsers, OS and devices. With the help of which, tester can perform testing in one window and can save his time in toggling the various devices, browsers and OS.However, as a smart tester , one should be aware about the weaknesses of those tools so that he should not miss any bug due to the reason that he is working in a virtual environment.g)Accessibility testing can also be considered if required.Accessibility testing is mainly required to provide a smooth working for special kind of audience with disabilities like color blindness, listening problems.h)It is a very good practice to automate the test cases for cross browser testing as it consumes very much time and this is a very important piece of any project's quality.The above points are covered by software testers in software testing companiesHope above post will help you to get an idea regarding the Cross browser testing methodologiesHAPPY TESTING!Regards,Anand

Get into MILPERSMAN 1910–110 to read all of the details, including a sample request with required/suggested documents. It is a complex process, and there are no make or breaks. “No member has an absolute right to discharge from Navy due to hardship,” but “Each request will be carefully and sympathetically considered and a final decision will be based upon its individual merits." The below only is only parts of two paragraphs of seventeen over eleven pages.In accordance with MILPERSMAN 1910–110:The member’s request must show that the hardship meets the following criteria:a. A severe hardship exists, not normally encountered and resolved by other members of the Naval Service.b. The hardship affects the servicemember’s immediate family. Immediate family is defined as: spouse, son, daughter, stepchild, parent, brother, sister, or other person, including a stepparent acting in loco parentis for a period of 5 years before the member became 21 years of age, or any bonafide dependent of the servicemember. In-laws and grandparents are not considered members of the immediate family solely by virtue of their relationship as in-laws or grandparents.c. The hardship is not of a temporary nature and cannot reasonably be expected to be resolved within the near time frame by using leave (including emergency leave if overseas) or a period of TEMDU for humanitarian reasons to better the situation.d. The hardship has occurred or has been severely aggravated since entry into the service.e. The member and family have made every reasonable effort to alleviate the hardship.f. There are no other family members or relatives nearby who are capable of providing the necessary assistance.g. The discharge or release of the member will result in the elimination or material alleviation of the hardship.Further:Extraordinary circumstances involving members of the applicant’s family normally warrant special consideration when it is proved that the member’s presence is essential to alleviate the hardship and, in addition to other requirements, includes, but is not limited to the following:a. The death of, or final divorce from, a spouse where the member is left as sole parent of a minor child or children, other arrangements cannot be made for their continued care, and the member cannot continue at present duties and properly care for them (process member under MILPERSMAN 1910-124 if applicable). To be eligible for separation under this subparagraph the member must be a single parent serving on (or under orders to) sea duty or be in a deployable status and have a final divorce decree with permanent physical custody awarded to the member.b. The long-term physical or mental illness of the spouse that does not allow the member to perform duties as assigned and the member’s continued presence is required. (NOTE: Whether the mental illness of the member’s spouse is severe enough to warrant a hardship discharge is a determination within the discretion of the appropriate SPCMCA.)c. As a result of the disability or death of a parent, the separation of the member from the Navy is essential for the financial and physical support of a member or members of the family. Undue hardship does not necessarily exist solely because of altered present or anticipated income. Consideration must be given to Social Security, disability payments, other federal and state assistance programs, and any other income or assets of the member or other family members.I only processed one request for hardship discharge in my 29 months as a legal officer. It was successful, but took a large effort on the part of the member to document the above criteria. If I remember correctly they had a parent who became ill/disabled and was dependent on the Sailor. We had to get medical documentation of the illness/disability and how the Sailor was the only one who could support them. It was also critical to demonstrate how leaving the service would relieve the hardship, as we had to show the member could replace the lost income and could provide medical care/insurance.You need to see your legal officer or base JAG and start a conversation about the nature of the hardship and how best to document and request the discharge. It is also a good idea to see the Fleet and Family Support Center. The Navy has a number of resources to help service members address hardship, and these won’t be available once discharged.
