Timing
Filing early
In several states, filing before your VA letter arrives preserves your effective date — the claim is decided later but dated from when you filed.
Why it can matter
We have not verified whether Virginia preserves an effective date on an incomplete application. Because it can be worth a full year elsewhere, ask your Commissioner of the Revenue directly rather than assuming either way.
