ptsd Claims

Requested increases on all and the ones I am getting O on ... But there are 2 claims showing when I go into EBENEFITS . This claim and a back claim only 11/2013.. The 9/15/2014 is under review but the 11/2013 claim is in preparation of notification already. I already went to the back appointment 3 weeks ago... My question is why would they put a back claim only and backdate it? Also it says if there are multiple claims filed they are going to combine with the first c…

Please Advise
At Bva hearing done 8/05/14, Judge stated appeal would be advanced on docket due to homelessness. Now appeal showing complete as of 10/15/14 with the following statement: Your case has been received at BVA, and BVA has mailed your decision to you (and your representative, if any) and will be returning your claims file to the Appeals Management Center or, if represented by an attorney, the Regional Office. Please note that transit times vary, and there may be some lag time between when BVA forwards your claims file to its appropriate location and when that location receives it. I called 1-800# and was told my appeal was advanced on the docket due to financial hards…

ptsd Ebenefits Claim Went From Prep For Decision Back To Gathering Evidence
LAst Thursday, my eBenefits status changed three times. I had my C&P exam two weeks ago (at which point my claim was at Gathering of Evidence), and my results were received and updated in ebenefits a few days after. Last week on Monday, my status changed to Review Of Evidence, then on Wednesday to Prep for Decision, then Pending Decision approval on Thursday with a completion date of 12/10/14 to 3/25/15., At the end of the day I checked again and it had gone back to Gathering of Evidence with an expected completion date of sometime in 2016. Is it normal for this to happen? Especially since depending on the rating I may be getting a fairly large retro check? I check…

Claim Is Almost Complete!
Here's my timeline for IU so far: 4/17/14 Claim Received 4/18/14 Under Review 6/11/14 Prep For Decision 7/16/14 Under Review (claim no longer considered an FDC. Don't know why since I never sent in anything else after I started the claim) 7/23/14 Gathering of Evidence 9/17/14 Prep For Decision 9/22/14 Pending Decision Approval 9/23/14 Prep for Notification It seems to have hit a snag at Prep for Notification for some reason but at least it's almost complete! Hopefully it will be done by sometime next week. I will keep you all posted.

ptsd Hoping For The Best
Hello everyone I have been reading through many of the threads on this site and I have seen loads of great information and inspirational stories. I am currently working with a VSO from DAV. He recently submitted a FDC for an increase based on my PTSD worsening. I have some other issues that are attached to that claim also. I really feel like I may have taken some missteps in this whole process but having found this site I am hoping I will receive the correct rating with you guys support. My first claim was basically denied I was granted 10% for a shoulder injury and everything else was 0% or denied. Five years after that I was diagnosed with PTSD and my compensation went …

Active Claims
I have an active claim that was submitted about a week ago but it still doesn't appear on eBennies. There is a box stating active claims information is not available but that has been there for about 2 weeks. Anyone else here that can't access their active claims on the site? Thanks!

Direct Deposit Info Deleted
Hi all , I have a question about dd. I have a claim that has made the completed stage on Oct 2,2014 and I had updated my dd on Aug 11. I have not received my BBE yet and also am not getting any previous deposits because of no rating yet. I went to ebenefits to look at my personal info and dd has no available info and unable to update ...( call peggy I assume). so my question is did my dd info for my bank get deleted if they are denying me my claim?? Seems like this is an indicator I was denied before receiving bbe :( Thanks in advance
