Iu Compensation

[sf_ranger]

My friend has 80% schedular and 20% IU for a little over a year...He is 100% P+T and 60 years old but he has problems that he believes will get him additional percentages....He also has a tuiton of $60K to pay and he cannot work due to his IU....If he opens an additional claim does he or can he be in trouble if he doesn't get the additional 20% as schedular?....Also is there any way he can get the $60K removed of reduced due to his 100% P+T???.... Any help would be greatly appreciated because he is a kind, introverted and a good person..

God Bless our Troops..

Another thing to think about is: many of the universities have their own VA rep, who know's about things like grants, waivers, etc...may be of great assistance to him, to take a copy of his rating letter and go over to his univeristy and request an appt with the VA rep there.

May be a way to speed up the process and get him out of his debts.

Next, why would he want to remotely consider giving up his benefits of being 100% IU P&T to get scheduler?

He'd be scheduled for every 18months a new exam, risk losing his ratings and he'd lose his benefits of having ch.35 benefits for his family.

Plus, he'd lose his ID Card and base privileges, etc....that just ain't the way to go, unless he's considering doing that, in order to return to work.

Which if he goes that route, VA WILL DEFINITELY WANT TO SEE HIM WITHIN 12months!!

Cause legally and logically you can't be IU and then work to get your rating changed to IU and then low and behold, you can work and hold down a 40hour a week or more job.....it just don't work that way and he'd definitely lose ALL of his benefits for FRAUD!

As to the SSDI, he should definitely find himself a lawyer, versed in SSDI and appeals, get on that ASAP. He's losing money, which in his case, he definitely needs....these lawyers work on a percentage basis, so he wouldn't be out of pocket....so it'd be a win win situation for him!!

Lots of luck to him on his claims.
