Rate this question

Question

Dont know if anyone feels the same but the 800 va numbers are just wasting your time. I am soooo frustrated that I can not get a straight answer as of when my TDIU is going to kick in or even get a awards letter from regional..All they have to say that it is being finalized.. Well you was it not FINALIZED in DC when they granted me TDIU.Its a wonder why the VA is soo backed up the paper work is so redundant it gets me sick...

Yes at this point for you it is certainly worthless to call the

800 # - but this holds true for most anyway.

Chill out - you know it's going to come soon.

Don't worry about your decision being reverse,because the the decision to grant already been decided.The Regional Office is going over your medical records to see what percentage they are going to give you.For PTSD its either 0, 10, 30, 50, 70 or 100. Good luck

yes, the 800# is a waste of time; because it goes to some dispatch center that is not even on the same (or even updated) system as the regional office you're working with. Moreover, they're just operators doing their job, regurgitating information on the screen that may or may not be right (i.e. up to date).

Sad, but true.
