What Form Do I Need To Fill Out?
Sorry but I didn't know where to ask this question. I'm going to try out living in the Philippines and need to know what I should send the VA. I have a P.O. box in the states that I'm going to use as my mailing adress(sister checks it). But my physical adress will be in the Philippines. So hopefully if I have an appointment it can be taken care of in Manila. Cliffs: I'll have a mailing address and a physical address. How do I tell the VA this?

The State Of Va Disability Ratings In The 21St Century
I just finished watching the House of Veteran Affairs committee recent meeting on up coming changes to the Disability Rating system. I have to admit that my experiences with the system have been very disappointing. This committee has given me some hope for the future.I think they will be on the right track soon. My time will be too short to be able to experience it, but it really looks promising. It is about 90 minutes long, but if your lacking some faith in the system, this will make you feel alot better. I have a few suggestions for them I will submit, but I feel they are on the right track and my faith in politicians has been renewed a bit. I see some generation proble…

Special Ss Benefit For Veterans Question
I have recently discovered a special SS benefit for certain WW ll veterans. I am not certain about the qualifications due to the way it is worded however it appears that it is only for Veterans whom live outside the the U.S. Could someone here please shed some light on this for me as I am investigating it for my 85 year old father, a WW ll veteran. My question is: Is this benefit only for veterans living outside the U.S. ? Or does this part of the wording pertain to the Filipino veterans? Here is the link for the benefit I found on SS website. http://www.ssa.gov/pubs/10157.html Thank You!

Top Secret?
Prior to filing my claim in Jan 2011 I requested all records from St. Louis. Upon receiving them I discovered some missing. These were while I was assigned as an intelligence analyst (98J). I called STL and was told all records were sent. I had a very high security clearance ~Top Secret with SCI(sensitive compartmented information access) HHC 312th MI BN 1st Calvary Division. I wonder if my job description had anything to do with these missing personnel files.

tdiu Business Investment While Waiting For Unemployability
I see post all the time regarding employment while awaiting a decision on unemployability, but have not seen anything regarding a Veteran investing in a business. If, the Veteran was only a silent party, did zero work at the business, how would the VA look upon this? I would think that the Veteran could put it in their spouses name. Papa
