Under current VA regulations, the maximum schedular rating for tinnitus is 10% — even if: - It is constant - It affects both ears - It disrupts sleep - It causes concentration problems - It significantly impacts your quality of life The VA rates tinnitus under Diagnostic Code 6260, and the 10% rating is the cap regardless of severity.
