I am currently at 80 % and unemployability P&T being paid at 100% rate. I have been recently diagnosed with Prostate Cancer. Since I'm all ready being paid at the 100% rate is it even worth submitting a claim? Thanks Bill

tdiu Message Removed about TDIU and Voc Rehab
I posted a message a few hours ago about a letter I received from Voc REhab. I received an answer from Buck52 and when I go back to the site, the message is gone. I am not sure if it was moved or deleted, or if it was allowed or not. Not sure whether to repost or what to do. Thanks.

tdiu UNEMPLOYABILITY AND INCREASE..CONFUSED
Hello fellow vets. I need your educated answers on this if you could? I filed a claim for an increase and individual unemployability.... I logged on to ebenefits yesterday and realised I was bumped up from 80% to 100%..My question is--would it show up as 100% even though i am only at 80% but unemployable? And based on everyones personal experience how long does it usually take for backpay to hit your account?

tdiu Will SSDI help TDIU go to P&T
Hi guys. This is just Scenario but could happen to me depending on my claims outlook. Ok here is the question. If you are TDIU and then get approved SSDI for a service connected disability will that help your TDIU go to TDIU P&T. And if you can get TDIU P&T does that mean the VA can never reduce your benefits. Thank you for your time and input. Bill

tdiu Your age and TDIU
Ok, I pretty much got SSDI understood regards age, etc. but, If one has a service connected disability(s) that prevents them from doing thier current job or what he did before for his entire life and of course is not working, What ages are considered, if any. Is age 20? Is age 50? And how about 55? Me, next year. Really not for me because I currently dont meet the requirements and I am employed. However, may be unqualified for work in a year or too because of a couple different medical maledies. Just looking for examples were age mattered. Thanks, Hamslice

ptsd (Updated with C&P results) Recently requested IU at MH providers suggestion
So I recently as of 20150412 applied for IU along with reopening my claims for migraines, vertigo and photosensitivity. I was recently back in march given an increase on my PTSD rating so that I currently sit at 80%. The breakdown being 70%-PTSD 10%-Left shoulder impingement 10%-Tinnitus 0%-mild ankle laxity My claim for migraines is well supported by over 3yrs of treatment records showing that I have on average two a week that cause me to either be forced to take an abortive that renders me unable to function so as to relieve the nausea of being stuck in bed all day without lights or any sort of sounds. There have been multiple medications I have…
