Question:

Hello Jim, I have moved to Italy with my wife for possibly a few years after getting married this week and want to add her as a dependent. I am on TDIU will adding her as a dependent cause me to be re-examined for my disabilities? I read somewhere that they review your file and re-examine you. Thank you very much for your help.

Jim's Reply:

All best to you both.
 

No, getting married won't trigger a reexam or anything like that. The only thing that can affect your TDIU is gainful employment or significant improvements in your rated conditions.
 

While you're having her added to your benefits, keep a couple of things in mind. The State Department vis embassies within your reach can be a veterans best friend. They know how to expedite things to CONUS if you're in need of help. And don't forget to get you and your new dependent set up with health care here https://www.va.gov/communitycare/programs/veterans/fmp/index.asp

Good luck.
