I do not have a VSO. I filed in Little Rock and I didn't really get much guidence from there.
Well it looks like I got approved for 20%. Hopefully my packet will have more detail on why I only got 20%.
Another thing, the effective date says Dec 1, 2012 but I originally submitted the claim Jan 5, 2012. Is that date wrong? Should it read Dec 1, 2011? If so, how do I get that corrected?
I'm pretty sure I'll have to do a NOD to see if I can get that raised a bit.
Also, a little off topic. I tore some ligaments in my ankle while in Iraq about 5 years ago and I've been out of the service since 2010. Recently, that same ankle has been really bothering me and may require surgery. I didn't put the ankle on my original claim because at the time it wasn't bothering me. How would I go about adding that and depression to my rating? Would I submit a new claim? Can I do that while I'm appealing the one that just completed?
