I have a question....
I was awarded S/C for some contentions back in June 2014 - rated at 40% and at that time there were other contentions "deferred".
I was then awarded for S/C for some contentions in November 2014 - rating went up to 60% and there were contentions I was denied on. I put in for an NOD and that is where I currently sit.
My question is, if I WIN to get my S/C for some of those contentions that were denied in November 2014, what effective date will my award go back to? The original one was December 1, 2013 and has been my date on both my 40% and 60% award letters.
Also, if I win the addition %, for example additional 20%, how much retro would I be looking at?
These contentions were filed in my original filing back in May 2013.....
