Was I cheated on my TDIU P&T timeline?
Hi everyone! Been a while since I posted, hope all surviving members and their families are doing well. Reason I’m posting today is that I have concerns about the protection timeline for my TDIU P&T rating. I was first granted TDIU in 2010 after applying with a combined rating of 80% (70% MH + 10% knees). After being approved in 2010, I attended several C&P reexaminations over the years; the last being in 2020, where I was finally granted P&T status (according to my award letter). Now I understand that rated conditions are subject to the 5, 10, and 20 year rules, each providing its own level of protection. But when someone’s status changes to P&T,…

90% to TDIU but want to continue to try to work
My Lawyers at CCK wants me to file for TDIU. They don’t think they will be able to get me to 100% and I am currently at 90% which was rated recently. I have had a spotty employment past and have had to take time off for back issues and depression but I don’t want to give up on trying to work. If I am at 90% pre filing for TDIU and get approved to 100 TDIU and land a job where I make more than the threshold, what can I expect my rating to get decreased to? I am only going for remote work as it is all I am able to do with my back issues. Any information on this subject would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Va education and monthly pay question
This is about education. I’m 100% totally and permanent disable due to service connected disabilities (PTSD 70%, TBI 10% and others at 10%). So my question is, Can I go to school and finish a 4 year degree, but still get pay the same amount till I get my bachelors to find something better? VA has told me, I can go to school, but VA will treat that as I’m getting better, so within a year my rating MIGHT go down. Which is fine with me, however, is that really true that while I’m doing a 4 year plan degree, my rating will get revised? or do they wait till I finish my degree and then find a job so that then my rating will get revised again? What I’m trying to …

TDIU Effective date
Submitted TDIU Claim in November 2021 after requesting an increase on October 2021. Had a C&P exam in December 2021, where the doctor stated I had trouble maintaining employment since Sep 2021 TDIU Claim was recently approved in June 2023 with an effective date of July 2022 (The day I last worked, this job wasn't SGE either). Should I request a change of my effective date through an HLR? I feel like it should be November 2021 and not July 2022 because of the December 2021 C&P findings.

TDIU effective date and does that date change EED?
I have a question about Effective date of my rating and the 5,10,20 year rule, and maybe even over 55 rule as that applies to me. I was rated 80% March 2005, then September 2013 was granted 80% TDIU P&T (TDIU was for the 70%PTSD MH) I was called by the VA back in 2006 asking if I wanted to apply for TDIU, and at the time I did not know what it was and I was working and told the person it was my therapy to work to "Buzz off". I was let go in 2013 from my job on account of my SC issues and meds I was taking from work. So, how does having TDIU work? Does it start the "Clock" over again or reset it at Sep 2013 TDIU date and now I have a new 20year date?? Erasing t…

Things are a lot faster now
I did a full claim when I retired about 11 years go. Been 60% and steadily working. After surgery and other back problems, I finally quit procrastinating and filed for an increase due to my deteriorating back. From the time I submitted, which was super easy online, to my C&P exam was two weeks. My most recent MRI showed severe foraminal stenosis on both sides multiple levels. I also added radicupathy to the list. The examiner only measured me bending forward. It did not help that I was having back spasms at the time of the visit. How long is it taking for the VA rater to complete?

TDIU question
I haven't worked for 10 years because of my lumbar spine pain and anxiety, I recently received an increase from 60% to 80% due to additional cervical spine deteriation and radiculopathy. Would I be eligible for TDIU if I haven't worked in such a long time?
