From Gathering Of Evidence To Completed Case
I called my congressman due to the lack of effort on the VA's part in getting my treatment records. He responded that he would look into it. Today I checked my e-benefits and it said my case was completed. However, there was a message that they want me to send my treatment records. Does anyone have any idea what this means. Did they turn me down?

ptsd Ptsd Help
I served 25 months active duty . I was discharged under general under honorable conditions. (pattern of disciplinary issues) I believe. I was states side. My fiance became pregnant and I was the happiest person in the world. She decided to have an abortion without telling me. It was a 2 day procedure. When she came back it was clear she was very sick. I found out and "being a man" went with her for support on the 2nd day (even though I was 100% against it). It was honorific, I still picture it every night when I go to sleep. I was sent to the mental ward in Denver Colorado for two weeks against my wishes. And was discharged a few weeks after that. I had no idea I co…

When We Need To Write Complaint About Vso, How To
i just slipped through the cracks again so my VSO tells me. the particular service org has rep'd me 4 times over the past quite a few years. i slipped through the cracks the first time. a few years ago, in another city, same service org blew me off saying i didin't have this disease. though VA SC'd for it, but not cuz he helped, an IME did that. same service org didn't enlighten me that i needed to get all evidence into a c-file on a claim a few years ago, so that got denied. with their first claim years ago, i found/read their lawyer blew me out of the water with their asinine statements about my character that had nothing to do with the spinal claim increase at that tim…

Life Out Of Houston Varo?
Well, I called my vso at the Houston Dav and to my surprise I not only got someone on the phone but she also transferred me to my vso! I was told my claim was given to a second rater on Jan. 25. I asked if he thought they would complete by Mar. 1 and he said "yes". Any suggestions as to why given to 2nd rater? I'm just elated that there is life @ Houston RO.

Filing More Than One Claim Lumped Togther
i had a claim in for MS secondary issues and was told by a congressional rep it was in decision phase back in Oct 2011. so, i checked with vso about filing the SC for cervical issues and increase for already SC'd lumbar issues. today i get this notice from RO: Generally speaking, VA policy dictates that if additional conditions are claimed while you already have an open claim in process, the newly claimed conditions must be added to the open claim already in process and development must be completed for the newly claimed conditions. so now, what another 2 years to get this complete since they lumped it all together?

What Form Do I Need To Fill Out?
Sorry but I didn't know where to ask this question. I'm going to try out living in the Philippines and need to know what I should send the VA. I have a P.O. box in the states that I'm going to use as my mailing adress(sister checks it). But my physical adress will be in the Philippines. So hopefully if I have an appointment it can be taken care of in Manila. Cliffs: I'll have a mailing address and a physical address. How do I tell the VA this?

The State Of Va Disability Ratings In The 21St Century
I just finished watching the House of Veteran Affairs committee recent meeting on up coming changes to the Disability Rating system. I have to admit that my experiences with the system have been very disappointing. This committee has given me some hope for the future.I think they will be on the right track soon. My time will be too short to be able to experience it, but it really looks promising. It is about 90 minutes long, but if your lacking some faith in the system, this will make you feel alot better. I have a few suggestions for them I will submit, but I feel they are on the right track and my faith in politicians has been renewed a bit. I see some generation proble…
