VA Decision letter vs ebenefits
ok here is a really weird situation, I received notification through ebenefits a few weeks ago and via va.gov that my claim for increase for migraines was granted and went from SC 0% to SC 30% (even though my evidence showed I deserved 50% for migraines frequency , severity, and time off work). when I received the actual letter from the VA in the mail it indeed matched what ebenefits and va.gov said as far as 30%.....fast forward about 2 weeks later....yesterday I logged into ebenefits just to just something and ebenefits says I am now 50% for migraines? my total combined increased to 80% as well to reflect the 50% increase. I checked the VA letter generator in va.gov and…

Conditions are missing and asked about dependant
A few days ago I got a call from ebennies. When I called them back they asked me what city and state my spouse and I got married. Which is in Nigeria. I filed a claim last year, but was denied.

Attorney Fee status...
My attorney fee went from prep of notification with a development letter sent out back to gathering evidence. With a complete date of 12-14-2018 to 01-18-2019.... This claim is for backpay that my lawyer won at the BVA with no remands. Could this new completion date just be a 'dummy' date for that stage? I don't see how it could take that long. A few days ago the #800 said they were waiting on a final signature.

disability claim increase
I had a back increase for degenerative disc disease from 10% to 20% 1 year ago. Since that time my back was correctly diagnosed by a private outside the VA Surgeon and underwent 13 level spinal fusion with 26 screws and 2 cobalt chrome rods. Surgery was 8 1/2 months ago. This surgery is definitely an increase to an existing 20 % rating. I have pain in the scar and back is painful and not healing well. PT has been slow with numerous cancellations. Now both hips are in pain and being addressed through outside pain management friday. this is all documented at the VA through the choice program. this is alot and i am looking for suggestions on my next step? I am currently 90% …

upload documents to ebenefits
I have recently been uploading my Medical documents into Ebenefits. It seems to be rather easy to scan the documents into my computer and then upload them.. I filed my claim for increases on my current ratings on 11/16/2015.. I am almost done submitting evidence.. I have not had a CandP exam yet however... Can I request a decision? Will that expedite the scheduling of my CandP exam?
