  1. Hi Wile. Update, my claim was closed on June 2, 2016. Ebenefits said notification was sent. I called the 800 # but they said they aren't allowed to discuss it yet until after I recieve the award letter. Went to my local Varo and they informed me that my claim was awarded and should be receiving retro pay this week sometime. Hope this helps
  2. Whats up guys, hopefully someone out there can help me out here. Ok I had surgery on my right knee (service connected) on 4-13-16 at the VA hospital in Phoenix. I applied for convalescense pay the day before which was 4-12-16. My surgeon wrote a statemwnt saying I would be out of commission for 8-10 weeks or more if "desired strength in leg is not met" how long does the VA take to process something like this? And my understanding is the VA doesnt pro-rate meaning my convalescent start date is 5-1-16 and for 8 weeks will that be from 5-1-16 until 7-31-16? I currently am at 40% so i get $699.36/month. With convalescense do they pay 100% per month (in my case its $3187) or will they pay one lump sum for both months? Thank you Quote Edit
