Successful increase after failed appeal.

Thanks bronco, just glad I finally got what I should have the first time in 2015. -
Successful increase after failed appeal.
PostMan1988 replied to PostMan1988's topic in Success Stories
Funny thing is my appeal (disagreement with 10%) was denied in July after 4 years of waiting. SO right after that appeal was denied I just filed for an increase and boom... only took 2 months. Maybe they just didn't want to pay the back pay on the appeal? -
Checked my disabilities and also checked my letter and they are both updated so let's pretend it's fact for now. Went from 10% panic disorder up to 50% August 27th: Filed for increase September 16: C&P exam with LHI October 4: Preparation for Decision October 6: Preparation for Approval October 7: Awarded increase to 50% for panic disorder
-
Well it never changed and I just got the denial letter, good luck to you though.
-
Mine has said Closed since August 15th, no updates yet...
-
Was closed on the 15th and Peggy said I should be getting a letter soon. Yes it was one issue (appeal to raise PTSD/anxiety %) No change on ebennies or bank account anywhere so I gotta wait. Could "VA made a NEW decision" be good news since my appeal was denied at regular appeal and this is from higher-review? Guess we'll see because no one has ever typed those words in internet history when I searched it.

Scared me Bronco but I finally got my backpay, now I can claim success

Thanks retiredat44, will follow you on your journey and see what happens with us

I just closed an FDC in 35 days a couple of days ago, I'm seeing movement everywhere, but I need to chill.
-
Ah yes remands, took 4 years to get to my last one! Guess I'll wait like everyone else.
-
Update: Closed August 15th Wondering if anyone else has seen this before and if the timeline was about right?
-
Very sad Bronco to think about the vets that died fighting the VA, I bet you knew a couple from this forum. My benefit letter and disability both show that it granted with my new rating. Says they've mailed the decision so I can't be 100% sure til I see that and the $ hit my bank account.

Haha great point, just had my letter update today. Maybe I'll end up owing them money.

Tinnitus FDC Claim July 1st - Filed Claim July 17th - C&P July 31 - Preparation for Decision August 3 - Preparation for Approval August 4 - Preparation for Notification August 5 - Closed rated 10% for tinnitus Just thought I'd let you know how the FDC's are looking. Not bad! This was Muskogee. Any new benefits at 20%? Thanks everyone who posts on this forum for the help.

Time for C&P exam after Remand
PostMan1988 replied to az arr's question in Veterans Compensation & Pension Exams
Took me 10 months to get mine, been over a week now and haven't heard anything yet. -
Let us know what happens, had my C&P done over a week ago edit: mine took a week to get to RO, waiting for anything to happen now though...
-
Mine has said the same thing since 7/15/2018, finally had c&p done last week (took almost a year). First sc 10% (anxiety) in 2015 and appealed right away, this is where I sit now.
