  1. Ok after going around and around I finally got a answer. I had to submit application to United States Army Review Boards Agency. Here is the website link. http://actsonline.army.mil/ Well of course they still have to approve it but my chance are good because I fell into the 90 day window of retiring when the TEB started so I was not informed I was elgible to transfer my benefits. Well I hope this helps someone else!
  2. Thanks for all the replies. I have a better understanding now. I don't work and don't plan on getting a job
  3. At a recent visit to the VA I was told buy a employee that I should be unemployable because of the 100% rating for PTSD. He referred me to another office to ask about this and possibly get it corrected. I went there and was told according to my paperwork I'm considered employable. My paperwork says employability is a moot point. So which is true? I remember reading somewhere that if you are 100% for PTSD you are unemployable? I dont work and have not worked since leaving the army over two years now. How does becoming unemployable benefit me?
  4. I guess I hope to get better. I do have something set-up for one child and need to get something going for the other as far as college savings.
  5. Well I guess I can't do it. Thanks for the info. Yes Chaprter 35/dea is authorized but I dont think the VA is going to let me stay at 100 percent and my kids are young.
  6. I tried do that and got some error. So I called the va gi bill number and they told me I cannot transfers it because I'm retired? So can I transfer it? How? Who should I call to help me if I can transfer my gi bill to my kids Thanks
  7. Well I retired from active army October 2009 can I still transfer my GI bill kids? Or i had to do that while I was still serving? I see that it took effect to be able to transferring your benefits in august 2009.
  8. I got a letter say I have a appointment at the VA and I'm not sure what it is for. If it was for a C&P would it say that? I'm going to call on tuesday to find out but wanted some feed back.
  9. That would be nice for this to pass. I'm 100% and just got the denied letter from SS today.
  10. Well talk about fast less than two months from filed to denied. I guess the 100% for ptsd and dysthymia is not enough for SS. Well not sure what I'm going to do VA says you cant work and SS says I can.
  11. Well I sat down and filled my claim on 24 September. On the the 28th I got a call from my case manager I think that is what he called himself. We spent over a hour on the phone. He asked all kinds of question about my daily life. Then a few weeks later I got a letter with a quetioner for a family member or close friend. I sent that back to them promptly. I just check the staus online it says "The Disability Determination Service in your State is processing the medical port on of your claim" So far everything seems to be moving fast to me. I was told since I recently retired my claim was being expedited. I keeping my finger crossed and try not check the status everyday.
  12. I'm at a 100% for PTSD and have not submitted for social security. I just hear about all the people getting turned down and it just take my motivation to submit the paperwork. I called about my CSRC the other day and it is taking four months now for the Army. So it will be near the end of September before I hear anything about that. I was on another forum and somebody was talking about a formula to figure out what you would get for CRSC I didt quite understand it. What I get from the VA is 3007.00 and it is tax free. I currently get CRDP from the Army and that is taxed. So what will I get for CRSC?
  13. Thanks for the information. Yes I am getting CRDP.
  14. I was not sure where to post this. I retired last year after 20 years service. In January I got my 30% upto 100% for PTSD and dysthymia backe dated to my retirement date. I am dropping my paperwork CRSC in the mail today. Does anyone know anything about this process? About how long it takes? If I am approved my pay retirement would be tax free? Any other input from someone who has been approved for this? Thank you
  15. I dont work I retired from the Army about 8 months ago. I guess it hard to hear that someone doesnt want me to work. I joined the army at 18 and retired at 38. So Its hard to not be working but on the other had its hard to admit I have problems.
