Question
Plumbob
I retired 1 June 16, 1st VA claim submitted 2 June 16. I put a Intent to File on 14 June 16 for some issues that didn't make it to my retirement claim. Got my first claim done in Aug 16, I waited till April 17 to File again. My claim was complete last week, got a increase and received the letter today.
Received some back pay, but the letter says my effective date is April 17. I was under the impression that it would go back to my intent to File date at least, but also thought since I filed within 1 year of retirement it would go back to that date?
I called the VA yesterday, and she told me it was because that was the first I was diagnosed with it, which is true, I never thought of going to the doc for crapping all the time while on active duty.
Am I wrong
