Moderator pacmanx1 Posted August 28, 2010 Moderator Share Posted August 28, 2010 (edited) Basically veterans that are awarded 100% schedular most likely have disability ratings that are rated around 230% but VA combines their ratings and only pays them 100%. TDIU/IU is when a veteran is rated service connected and is less than 100% but their condition is so severe that VA awards them TDIU/IU and pays them the 100% rate. The veteran is considered unemployable. P & T is when a veteran has a disability that is reasonably certain to continue throughout his or her life. P & T adds Military MWR ID Card, dependent education (CH 35), dependent health care (CHAMPVA), Life Insurance, and state benefits (Check your state). A veteran can be awarded 100% schedular and P & T and A veteran can be awarded 100% TDIU P & T If I missed something others will chime in.

stillhere Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 I would also like to point out that the rate of comp is the same whether you are 100% or 70% being paid at 100% the only time extra monies become a factor is when there is additions such as dependents and SMC benefits. Also when you get 100% your disabled insurance through the VA is free for the first 10,000 and you are allowed to purchase an additional 10,000.

I think that will put in up to 80% by VA math.....We are wondering where to wait until he is rated on IHD and goes in effect,, before he applies for IU,, or to go ahead and file for it now ,,we thought if he goes ahead now it might slow the claim down....Do you think that will slow down the claim he has in already for IHD ??
