jerrbilly Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 In a general sense that is correct da mundo.......If you get another condition rated 60% on top of the 100% you can get more money though. If my calim comes back with 100 PTSD. 10% knee, 10% foot, that is a total of 120% but you are only paid upt to the 100% schedule, am I correct?

HadIt.com Elder john999 Posted January 31, 2010 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted January 31, 2010 You should ask for housebound SMC if you get 100% for PTSD. The VA is supposed to consider you for HB if you are 100% schedular. If you have any disorder that keeps you housebound ask for HB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1, First I would be quite surprised if your PTSD comes in at 100%. If you have a 100 % and a 60% you can apply for SMC / S. Also, factor in VA math. jmho, carlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerrbilly Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 John, do you feel you have the evidence needed to get 100% rate for PTSD? You would need overwhelming evidence PLUS a liberal rater to get rated 100%. If my calim comes back with 100 PTSD. 10% knee, 10% foot, that is a total of 120% but you are only paid upt to the 100% schedule, am I correct?

HadIt.com Elder john999 Posted February 1, 2010 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted February 1, 2010 If you read the VA criteria for 100% Schedular for a mental condition it says total social and occupational impairment. They mean total with a capital T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SANDMAN Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 According to my VSO ( American Legion ) you have to be a complete nut case ( no offense to anybody ) hell my wife was asking if they had a higher rating for me . Ha Ha ( no seriously ) she did ask . B) Sgt ( only 50 % for now ) Sandman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
