Hello Folks! Hope everyone on board is doing well. I have been at 100% for TBI since 2009 plus other ratings. At the 2014 reevaluation, the decision was to keep it static at 100% for TBI. I felt that was not right because I was getting worse, so I filed an NOD for a P&T status and also on the same NOD, appealed for a higher SMC based on A&A. IT WAS SUCH A LONG WAIT!!! THIS IS 2018!!! I suspected progress when they finally sent me to be reexamined again this past spring. I finally got the letter last week, P&T awarded, effective date 2014. I needed that so bad. My son already started college two years ago and my daughter is starting this year, they officially had no educational benefits. Chapter 35 will help big time! Its a great win after a hard fought battle. However, no decision was made on a higher SMC. The appeal is still showing " open ". I just hope that by them deciding on one issue of a NOD, they forgot about the other. Awarding P&T is on the same line as the other issue. I feel so relieved. Thank you all.
