It would be nice if it wouldn't be that long but we all know how the va works it's so frustrating..

I just was granted a special monthly pension along with my service connected disability how does that work and how much or how long will i get it for . Received it for housebound...

I am relieved that the VBA saw that my bipolar disorder was caused by my time in the military also it was stated several times in the ruling that the VARO shouldn't be making decision on opinions not facts. As far as ebenfits isn't showing anything yet just hope it doesn't take as long as it did to get my first rating took 2 yrs for my first claim. Also on Va.gov says speical monthly pension but not in the letter i received has anyone else have that happened If not i am just happy that they acknowledge they messed me up. BVA 11/8/18 VARO ? EBENFITS ?

They basically said that the service caused the illness that they should have approved my claim when i filed the first time the judge was not happy with the VARO decision. If they give me 0% which i don't think that will happen but i will appeal it back to BVA and from what i read in paperwork the VARO doesn't want that to happen so i guess we will see... Thanks

I just found out i won my BVA appeal saying that my bipolar disorder is service connected what will happens next? They didn't give me a % or how long will it go back?
