My claim for disability was approved in 2013 (40%) with back pay to 2011. In October of 2017, I found out that I could file a secondary claim for depression as my service connected disability causes depression. I received a 50% rating for the depression and a combined rating of 70%. This claim took about 6 weeks from start to finish. In January 2018, I filed a claim for IU and that was approved in March and back dated to Feb 1, 2018.
I have not earned any substantial income since 2014 as per Social Security. I do not have any earned income since 2014. I filed an appeal asking that the UI be back dated to Jan 1, 2015. Do I have any chance of actually winning this appeal? I attached my Social Security Earnings Statement to the appeal.
Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated.
