How to get your questions answered.
All VA Claims questions should be posted on our forums. Read the forums without registering, to post you must register it’s free. Register for a free account.
Tips on posting on the forums.
- Post a clear title like ‘Need help preparing PTSD claim’ or “VA med center won’t schedule my surgery” instead of ‘I have a question’.
- Knowledgable people who don’t have time to read all posts may skip yours if your need isn’t clear in the title. I don’t read all posts every login and will gravitate towards those I have more info on.
- Use paragraphs instead of one huge, rambling introduction or story. Again – You want to make it easy for others to help. If your question is buried in a monster paragraph there are fewer who will investigate to dig it out.

Hello, Everyone: Thanks for having me aboard! I'm looking forward to meeting new vets and talking with you about our mutual interest: VA disability claims and appeals. I'm Jon Macintosh, former Army Ranger with 1/75, now a disabled vet who assists other vets and volunteers my time on different issues. Last year I published a book on how to prepare, file and maintain a VA disability claim. In time, I'll share my knowledge of the claims and appeals process with interested vets. Hopefully, we can learn some new things that will assist us in the VA benefits system. I also have a companion website with email newsletters for interested vets. I wish all of you t…

This is a post looking for information and how to proceed. I applied for diabetes when I got out of the Navy in 2011 and was denied. I put in another claim in 2016 but never received a C& P exam. So I applied again and they recommended I submit a supplemental claim which they denied. I did have a C& P exam and the examiner stated it was less likely than not incurred or caused by military service. I was diagnosed with prediabetes and was taking METFORMIN and taking blood glucose three times a day. I have had full diabetes since 2013. Favorable findings shows a qualifying event during service (prediabetes) and disability of Diabetes Mellitus II. I have an HLR in…

Hey guys! I'm new to the group! I'm 100%P&T plus Special Monthly Compensation S plus SSDI. I failed out of Voc Rehab, but I'm trying again. I really want to work. I know that if I go back to work, there's a chance of losing 100%P&T especially since it's soly based off PTSD/bipolar/adhd. Plus, what if I fail again? However, I figure if I work for the VA they would be able to accomodate me. I'm looking into becoming a nurse. I might make less, but what if I'm happier working? Plus, helping other veterans like me would be pretty rewarding. I don't know though. What do you guys think?

Post in New BVA Grants
broncovet posted an answer to a question,
While the BVA has some discretion here, often they "chop up claims". For example, BVA will order SERVICE CONNECTION, and leave it up to the VARO the disability percent and effective date.
I hate that its that way. The board should "render a decision", to include service connection, disability percentage AND effective date, so we dont have to appeal "each" of those issues over then next 15 years on a hamster wheel.

Finally Won...NOW WHAT?
Ztmiller8 posted a question in Appealing Your Veterans Compensation Disability Claims NOD, DRO, BVA, USCAVC,
Finally heard back that I received my 100% Overall rating and a 100% PTSD rating Following my long appeal process!
My question is this, given the fact that my appeal was on the advanced docket and is an “Expedited” appeal, what happens now and how long(ish) is the process from here on out with retro and so forth? I’ve read a million things but nothing with an expedited appeal status.
Anyone deal with this situation before? My jump is from 50 to 100 over the course of 2 years if that helps some. I only am asking because as happy as I am, I would be much happier to pay some of these bills off!-

Post in Higher level review
Joey Ross posted an answer to a question,
I told reviewer that I had a bad C&P, and that all I wanted was a fair shake, and she even said, that was what she was all ready viewed for herself. The first C&P don't even reflect my Treatment in the VA PTSD clinic. In my new C&P I was only asked about symptoms, seeing shit, rituals, nightmares, paying bills and about childhood, but didn't ask about details of it. Just about twenty question, and nothing about stressor,

I don’t say thank you enough to all of you...
Tbird posted a question in VA Disability Compensation Benefits Claims Research Forum,
You, yes you, are the reason HadIt.com has remained a resource-rich resource. Thousands come each month to read, ask questions, or to feel a sense of community.
Last month June 2020, we over 50k visitors they viewed over 160k pages. Veterans and their advocates, spouses, children, and friends of veterans come looking for answers. Because we have posts dating back 15 years and articles on the home page, they usually can find an answer or at least get pointed in the right direction.
You all made that possible. Thank you.- 8 replies
