georgiapapa, What did you need to provide and to whom for the property tax benefit? V/r WOLF14

Can one get a 100% rating from VA and receive the 100% Compensation pay without being TDUI or P&T and would one still be allowed to continue to work the same full time job one currently has that one had after retirement prior to getting a 100% rating from VA?

Bolt_vet23, Just go through Ebenifits and start a new claim for increase.

PR, Thank you for the timely reply. I've provided all my records since retirement on my injuries "such as my back" that's been getting worse since I retired in 2011, I want to leave it up to the examiner, with respect to my documented worsening symptoms to properly evaluate me. I am at 20% for my back since 2011 and its gotten worse :(

Going for a C&P Exam for increase of some SC injuries. All are service connected and range from 0% - 30%. Will this C&P exam only focus on what I am claiming for increase or more? V/r Wolf

BakerGeckos, What did you send to the VA for when he/she turned 18? Did you do it through Ebenefits and how long did the process take? V/r Wolf

Thanks All, I think there is a way that I can get onto Ebenefits and submit the VA 21-674 but not sure. I will definately get the school to provide a letter showing he is still in High School and once he has his college schedule for next year I will be sure to submit that as well.

Can I go through Ebenifits to let the VA know that I have a child turning 18 that is still in school?

Can I go through Ebenifits to let the VA know that my child is 18 and still in school?

Thanks to All for the reply amd advice.

Hello, I have a child turning 18 years old this December. Do I need to contact the VA to ensure I get an increase to the Compensation Benefits Rate for him and do I need to ensure they know that he is still a full time student? Thank you, V/r WOLF

jbasser and john999, Thank you for the reply. jbasser, yes, I have documented evidence of the migranes continuing after retirement and becoming more frequent (more than once a month over the past several months). When I get the migranes it takes me a few hours to be able to concentrate again. Does it effect my work- yes, can I work-yes but not until the migranes have subsided. I have been taking Zolig and that is also documented. I have another appt with my PCM and plan on asking them to fill out the DBQ for my migranes. Will the DBQ plus the documented evidence be enough for the increase? Do I need to explain to the nurse and doctor that my visit(s) for any of these symptoms are for a re-evaluation for my FDC Claim or not? Will VA send me appointments for these worsening symptoms or will they just use the evidence I submitt from my PCM doctor(s) and specialists? Thanks for the assist, V/r Wolf14

Any advice out there?

Motherof3 Thank you. I see the Edit Delet button however it is not next to the dates that are overlapping, so I can't edit or delete the overlapping dates.

Hello all, I am trying to initiate an FDC claim using Ebenifits. On the Service History screen it say's that "Army and Army periods overlap" and I can't continue past this page. I have contacted the VA at the 1-800 number and they stated that someone? would check into it. It's been 2 weeks and the issue is still not resolved. Does anyone have any advice or a specific number I can call to get this resolved? Thank you all, V/r WOLF14

Thank you Carlie.

Hello, I am a new user on Hadit. First let me thank all for your informative posts and continued service to our men and women. I have a few questions regarding filing a FDC for Increase to my current rating. Here are my current service connected ratings: Obstructive Sleep Apnea- 50% Anxiety Disorder-30% Right Shoulder degenerative arthritis-20% Left Shoulder degenerative arthritis-20% Degenerative Disk Disease lumbar spine-20% TMJ Syndrome with Crepitus-20% Right Elbow Tendinitis-10% Left Knee Strain/pain-10% Right Knee Strain/pain/soft tissue/instability-10% Right Achilles bursitis with Metatarsalgia-10% Tinnitus-10& Mild Radiculopathy right hip-10% Right Hand 4th Metacarpal strain-0% Left Hand 5th Metacarpal strain and boutonniere deformity-0% Left Ear Hearing Loss-0% Gastro esophageal Reflux Disease-0% Left Vericocele-0% Migraine Headaches-0% I am currently rated at 90% and am 1 1/2 years after my retirement. Some of my service connected symptoms are getting worse (specifically the Migraines, shoulders (left and right), Left hand 5th Metacarpal and Back (Degenerative Disk Disease lumbar spine). I have recently opened a FDC on Ebenifits to "lock-in" a start date for back pay purposes. I have also elected a VSO to assist me but I haven’t been in contact with them yet. I am currently in the process of building my evidence for the service connected symptoms that are getting worse by scheduling appointments with my PCM and Specialists and will obtain all documentation after appointments. Here are my questions for Hadit: 1. Am I going about this the right way? 2. For all my SC disabilities rated at 0% listed above will having my PCM doctor note that these symptoms are getting worse finally get these above a 0% (like they should have been in the first place) and are there any statements I may need to write to support my case? 3. Do I need to explain to the nurse and doctor that my visit(s) for any of these symptoms are for a re-evaluation for my FDC Claim or not? 4. Will VA send me appointments for these worsening symptoms or will they just use the evidence I submitt from my PCM doctor(s) and specialists? Thank you in advance for helping me with this process and providing any helpful information. 26 Years US Army®, WOLF14
