Question
papahotel58
Just got off the phone with the VSO at the VA he found what the problem was holding up my decision and told me to expect my package within 10 days and gave me a IRIS number.
However I am very concerned with what he told me. The letter he read said,
A combined evaluation of 100% plus entitlements to benefits at the 100% rate due to individual unemployability has been assigned as a result of the following actions,
Entitlement to individual unemployability is granted effective July 11, 2015 to March 8, 2016.
Migraines 30% increased to 50%
PTSD 50% (no change)
Sleep Apnea 50% (no change)
Services connected Radiculopathy left upper 20%
Services connected Radiculopathy left upper 20%
Degenerative joint Disease 10% increases to 20%
Cervical strain 10% (no change)
Tinnitus 10% (no change) He also told me there was no mention of 100% disability after March 8, 2016, could this be possible?
I did the VA math and was more than 95% what am I missing?
Edited by papahotel58Will I have to go through the appeal process now after all this time to prove it all over again?
Or am I over thinking this and just need to wait till I get my package from the VA, maybe the 100% rating is hid within the 8 pages...Thoughts?..so stressed...Help me brothers....sisters.

Even with a combined rating if the veteran is awarded TDIU P&T with chronic disability the VA rates that rating as a 100%...even though the veteran may be sent a letter from VSO or DAV or w
