Long story, everything with the VA seems to be. Anyway after 40 years I have went from 10% with no kiss. To recently 80%, 50% PTSD and 30% GSW (gun shot wound)R (right) arm.
So I files for IU (individual unemployability for fellow PTSD'ers) July 14th 2009. Sept 10th 2009 I recieve the standard letter stateing they are working on my claim and giving me 30 days to submit further eveidence. That is less than 2 months, warp speed in my experience with the VA
I go to the DAV (Disabled American Veterans) at the FT Myers Fl clinic and tell Larry I have the letter, he gives me a questioning look and says already??
In the last 10 years dealing with the VA, I have never seen anything happen this fast.
Being the eternal optimist, the only thing I can figure is they got a new
"claim denied" stamp and can't wait to use it.
I'm not going to get my hopes up, but my rep says I have a very good claim!
