  1. I lost Aid and Attendance, the doctor stated that due to my mental health i need assistance and the areas.. The problem is i'm in Vietnam and this was not a doctor familiar with va.. The va sent me to him for C P.. Well he didnt put my service connected depression and anxiety general.. on the axis list.. Anyway he listed Social anxiety instead of general.. The Va denied the claim after getting one of there guys to write a bunch of crap.. I am going back to the doctor monday to have him redo the Aid and Attendance with only usuing my service connected disabilities. My question is 18 to 24 months is what i'm told.. Part of me thinks to just file a new claim? I'm not hurting money wise so to wait a few years would be ok too.. Any advice?
  2. claim fnished now, I think i lost because memory loss was added to my depression and anxiety i dont think it said that before on ebenefits but cant remember..lol my claim finished yesterday does anyone know how long to see it update on ebenefits. thanks
  3. I am thinking about applying for caregiver program.. I was told they make your caregiver go to training once a month? is anyone on the program can tell me how there va program is running it
  4. I am living in vietnam filed for increase depression axiety currently 70 ask for increase to 100.. also filed for a and a.. smc L. Ok, well they sent me to a vietnamese doctor embassy.. he put ptsd.. which i lost way back in 2011 but then won on depression anxiety secondary to my sleep apnea.. so i figure no need fight for ptsd.. well apparently this guy putting that and i broke down in tears he waas asking tuff questions.. and he put that i have ptsd and that i cried during interview.. well this has caused major caos on my cliam.. it had jumped back and fourth so many dam times... they even had one of there biased doctor say all kinds of shit that made no sense and did another dbq in the us without me.. I only know this because i pulled it from ebenefits.. it says nothing about A and A i'm already 90 percent tdui.. so I dont think this ptsd would make a differnce... I think the aa is fine the dbq states i cant live independatn ly and my problems and what i need help with plain as day related to serve. why are they making such a big deal abou this.. it has bouncesed back fourth 5 or 6 times at least review decesion pending back to gathering.. its so crazy.. please someone chime in
  5. God called they want clarification from doctor. It says plain as day I can not live independently due to mental health state reasons. I have a copy of dbq. It's for smc l aid and attendance. I'll try relax and wait
  6. Now its back to gathering dust. I have filed for aid and attandance and at the qtc exam the doctor put in the notes that i can not live independantly. I have no ideal if this is good or bad thing..
  7. Oh my god I filed for aid and attandance and increase from 70 to 100 for mental health.. My claim has been jumping around for last month maybe month in a half.. like every week or 2.. Today just jumped all the way back to gathering dust..lol Just hang in there.. if you use the web chat sometimes you can get them to read the notes.. part of my hold up was fidicuary that was closed after i uploaded a copy of my bank account.. at least that is what the lady in the chat room told me.. it was opened then closed last week.. I have to wait until monday to try get some info for why its now all the way back in gathering dust
  8. the doctor didnt put my social on it. can the moderator try to edit and take my name off. I can not figure out how to do it.. but since just has my name i'm not too worried. I lost my other paper work I know but I have been inbeewteen houseing and getting divorced.. Last year has been a bit hard.
  9. I should know about my claim anyday its in last phase 70 tdiu depression anxiety asking increase and i already have 50 percent for sleep apnea.. I asked for aid and attandance and the dbq said that I need assistance and can not live indepandant. I dont know if this will be enough to increase to 100 but i think that should be good to win aid and attandance.. my question is do i have to be 100 percent to win or is tdui fine. I think i asked this before my memory horrible medication. plus 50 percent would that be smc l 1/2.
  10. navy 04 are you going for smc i see u are 100 percent. how long did it sit in review after c n p.. i'm going for smc its been sitting in review over a month since c p was sent in.
  11. Yes maybe I lose people 100 plus 60 is smc s. But if u get aid and attandance from what I read u jump to smc l. Then every 50 percent moves u up a mark that would make me smc l 1/2 . Guess I'll know very soon
  12. I filed for aid and attancdance the way i understand smc s is 100 plus 60 but if you get aid and attandance that puts you at smc l. I have 50 percent for sleep apnea so if they increase my mental to 100 percent from 70 i'll be smc l 1/2. Its not physical but my depression anxiety is bad and i'm no good for long periods alone. I can not keep up with basic cleaning and cooking hygene. physically i can walk . my memory is a bit bad.. i guess i'll wait and see. Claims seem to be going alot better than years ago when i fierst started took 2 years.. after that its been around 9 months.. i think the gage on ebenifits is good as long as its clear cut and all evidence there.. thanks for the input
  13. claim got closed back in july because they didnt tell me about a c p exam.. got it repopened.. its over 1 year so i think that makes it top list.. 12 of october to 7 november.. cant stop checking it, been a month since c n p.. I'm guessing anyday, im living overseas and i hate ebenefits wont let u read the leatter.. mail takes 14 to 20 days. I guess if i get money in my account i'll know before the paper work comes? any feedback.. i know noone probably knows
  14. I am also living in Vietnam so its going be interesting how they schedule this we shall see.
  15. yeah there is a possibility you need one too .. no i'm perfectly fine could you please send a link to back up that the va can seize a bank account. as far as i know they set up a fidicuary and its policy the fidicuary sets up a seperate account for you.. Plus the claim has not been closed still in review as i stated earlier.. I am just preparing for the worse, i am well read and know about the horror of the fiduciary.. I also know that over 50 percent of americans live pay check to pay check why isnt someone handling their money..lol
  16. I am very much aware and i am always very firm about this. there was no reason and first time ever.. he says its possible because i'm diagnosed bipolar and do have some memory issues.. but i told him straight out I will see what happens.. I have one younger brother but he is horrible with money.. my parents i trust but they are old.. I'm going to fight this, I dont have anyone that close to me that i want in charge of my money.. thank you berta for chiming in ive read alot of you're post in the past.
  17. the claim is in review of evidence, sorry i did kind of ramble a bit and should be decided I imagine very soon i have been given copy of c n p thats what made me worry/
  18. Yes last comment i agree no i'm currently waiting and checking ebenefits dialy.. No i told him that i handle my money well, i am well aware of the problems that can come and always tell them.. i am in vietnam so maybe that.. but he said I could possibly handle it because of my memory and im bipolar and I could.. not that i'm doing he stated a possible situation.. I have uploaded a copy of my bank account showwing I am not living pay check to pay check and can handle my money. I am single and i will fight it and see what happens.. I do need help around the place and filed for aid and attandance but I dont need somoen helping themself to my money.. again agree with last guy.. i dont trust people with my money or loand money.. good way lose friends and family.. and noone can say they dont know of a case family and friends people get really weird over money in life. sad but true
  19. I just got a copy and they said no becaues my memory and if i'm in a manic state.. they never said that before any doctor and i have no problems paying my bills.. are they going try put someone who probably cant manage money in charge of my money.. please help a bit worried
  20. you guys amaze me all the time.. yes migraines 50 percent and sleep apnea 50 percent.. thank you so much.. My depression has gotten worse, where i need someone around because i'm a mess and my place will just be trashed along with me not taking care of myself and getting out of bed for days at a time some days.. plus i just cant seem to keep things in order or eating healthy on my own.. so i applied for aid and attandence after reading what you guys have put.. so i was just curious if i get 100 for depression 50 sleep and 50 migraines what it would be and if aid and attandance.. it should be comeing bak to me in about a month.. just had c and p exam .. thank you guys so much with out you icould not figure this out.
  21. If you have one service connected at 100 percent then two 50 percents what smc would you be.. do they still use the va match after 100 percent.
  22. My claim just completed yesterday.. ebenefits now shows migraines secondary to sleep apnea on ebenefits but does not show a percentage and does not have a date. But it has an arrow showing that it is secondary. But it still says non service connected the claim was just decided yesterday but that part is updated. just curious opinions on this?
  23. ok I think that you have to have a pension which i don't i did 10 years i'm a 911 veteran. I think i read caregiver is for pensions people that recieve them?
  24. I have a hell of a record my mind comes and goes .. it seems as i get better life loves to toss more at me to test me..lol Ok do I have to have smc S to get smc L. I really do need the help and am paying out of pocket, it just depends on the day or week or month. I go days or weeks with hardly any sleep is the most problem and well you guys know.. but sometimes i'm just fine.. anyway thanks again.
