Thanks for the response Vync. I have been in contact with the DAV for several weeks. My claim was waiting on a 3rd signature 6 weeks ago and the DAV rep had already told me I was granted P and T. It looks like all I need now is the retro and that BB envelope. After 7 years this may be coming to an end

So the benefits letter changed as of this morning. Showing the P and T! Any input on how long for the retro now?

Thank you vetquest for the reply. The frustrating part is that my DAV rep tells me everything is complete, just waiting on a 3rd signature... That's been the story for 7 weeks now

Will back pay be deposited at anytime during the day and will the benefits letter up date at anytime or only in the morning? Should I check morning and afternoon? I'm still here waiting trying to be patient and coming up on 1 year since the VLJ hearing and 6 months since the ROs grant of P and T.

I have a GRANT of an appeal with the VLJ that was granted in April 2019, TDIU dating back to 2012. I am told by the DVA that I also was awarded P and T and that the completion date is October 9, 2019, tomorrow. I know in the past I could see the Prep for Notification and estimated completion on Ebenefits but that has all been moved to Va.gov now and I see nothing there other that the GRANTED statement and a timeline for a remand that was also on appeal. Does anyone know if you can still see the estimated completion date anywhere and if so, where do I find it. Thank you

Thank you shrekthetank1

So I had the DAV representing me at my BVA hearing in Washington, that's been 9 months ago. The board has made their decision and my claim has been with the RO since May. I spoke with a DAV rep yesterday and he informs me that I was granted P and T on May 09 and that my case is waiting on 1 more signature before its paid out. When I ask him where he is getting this info he tells me that its all in my file that he is looking at on his computer. My question is this... Does the DAV have access to info like this in their system ?? I know I won 1 appeal for IU but was waiting to hear if it was going to be P and T and I have 1 remand still out there. According to this DAV rep, I got the P and T that I was hoping for but I hate to put much hope and excitement into that not knowing if he actually has access to that. Funny thing, he gave me effective dates, percentages, dependent info... Unless he was looking at the real thing, he could not have had this info. OPINIONS Please and Thank you

Thanks for the response Bwaveteran. So I am assuming that is what my letter from the BVA and the VLJ was. I read it again yesterday and it gives in detail what needs to be reviewed and done with my remand by the RO. I was granted my IU but I also had a remand on another claim. Again thank upi for the input

I am patiently waiting on the RO or the AMC to process my claim... I have been told that its at 1 of the 2 places. 4 months in now but 1 thing I keep seeing in different forums is the Fast Letter subject. Particularly Fast Letter 10 02. Can some one please explain to me what this is and what does it mean?

The DAV rep I spoke with seems to think the RO will process each seperatly due to the fact that they are unrelated to one another. (the grant and denial) I honestly think the same will be for me, I will receive the remand and grant in the same packet. I hope you are right on getting the letter soon! If you don't mind me asking Richard1954, what was the time frame on the partial denial/remand you got until you received your letter??

That is the pattern I'm beginning to see vetquest. I spoke with the DAV in Nashville and they say that since the Grant and Remand are for unrelated things that they feel certain the RO / AMC will work them separate... I did not have a lawyer, only a DAV rep in Washington.

I was afraid that they would do the remand before doing the IU. I will call the hotline today and see if they can get me somewhere... Thank you

I had 2 appeals that were heard by the VLJ. 1 was granted from my original service connected injury from 1991. I have been getting compensation from this since 1993. I filed for IU in 2012 and was denied. The judge granted the IU in November 2018. The remand was a claim for PTSD. It was originally denied in 2012 also but the VLJ remanded it with her ruling in November 2018. So I am waiting on retro and compensation change on the 100% IU for the service connected injury and the remand on the PTSD.

I was granted IU in April 19 after a hearing with the VLJ in Novemeber 18. 1 appeal was granted and 1 appeal was remanded. I still have heard nothing on the grant of IU but 2 days ago I called the DAV and they said that it looks like my case has gone to the AMC, Appeals Management Center. THis is where I am confused. Is only the remand at the AMC or is the grant also there??? From what I have researched it looks like only the remand goes to the AMC. Who will make the decision and do the paperwork on the grant? I emailed IRIS today to see if they could offer any insight into the grant and maybe a time line on where it is and how much longer... Anyone that has any input please offer it up!! I know this is a waiting process but I am so frustrated with all of this. Thank you all!
