Thanks for that, but I'm not so concerned with the VA, my questions were about SDI the eye and there Questionnaire report. Which I received seven years ago.. And now i've just received another one... Can you work, when were your last appointments? , have you gone to school et cetera et cetera... But, when I go to the remarks To add information Specific to my appointments because there's not enough room, In the initial boxes they provide.,... Should I also write and identify myself as a disabled veteran and that I receive all my character health care System. More specifically, should I just simply give a general 100% disabled veteran TDI U Permanent total. I mean, do they understand the terms ... and if it doesnt match up with my file, which probably says 70% tdiu p&t paid at 100% rate. Will that trigger a full evsluation?? I read somewhere that if your information doesn't match up then that triggers a flag and they look more closely.. Again problem my logic sayes that i'm splitting hairs and I shouldn't worry so much about it.. Thanks

Thank you everyone for your input.. I am 57yo. Va disabled veteran 70% individual unemployability, awarded 2010, permanent & total as of 2014 For ptsd..... I was awarded ssdi at max rate in 2011. I have already completed a 7yr review questionare ( have u worked, doc appts etc) about 7yrs ago. I have not worked and I have consistently, every month, been see my doctors at the VA since 2008 logic says nothing to worry about, but, when u have ptsd, anxiety etc, alot of the time is spent in a totally different orbit.... Thanks everybody

That sheds more light, on the va side. And i understand, that is what you do here, to help navigate the va system so, that was very helpful..thank you.. I just wondered if anyone knew the specifics or had a good Idea how the social security operates around veterans cases like this... I wonder if there are forums for dealing with ss subjects..I haven't found any. Thank you again

And again, forgetting the most relevent concerns, lol in the comment remarks box,.... Is it helpful or necessary to identify myself as something like, 100% individual unemployment permanent and total..do they understand the abbreviations? And if, just saying, 100% tdiu p&t...it won't verify and line up with what my initial information is that identifies my case..being actually 70% tdiu paid at 100% rate p&t Cause, I worry if I put 70% tdiu p&t paid at 100% rate...that, a newbie or whoever will just see the 70% and not understand the rest, decide I'm not 100%... Or do they even see any of that?? Or, just indicate... ive been recieving consistent, ongoing treatment at the va medical center Or, nothing at all?? I know I'm splitting hairs, but these are the things I worry about Thanks again

Thank you for that... I did not know They don't have access. Are you saying that if I become a little more sustained, able to cope a little better with symptoms, That, that is okand fine... In other words, I haven't actually gotten bettor improved And actually, my actual question was that I wasn't able to get across because because I always forget the most important Main thing whenever I address something. Is, what Triggers anactual medical review... Besides the obvious, such as getting better or working et cetera. Or not having been having treatment So, Since I've been doing everything I need to do with keeping up. consistent and ongoing Treatment. For the past 14 years. No I haven't worked and no, it hasn't gotten better.....etc... .......so, Then, they CANT , "just DECIDE"... that, since they haven't seen me in over a decade, That they would want me to come in and see their medical examiner? Even though the va has had close watch of me for that time.. I worry because, incredibly enough, 2 yrs after the va awarded awarded me p&t, they had me go to a medical review with those wonderful contracted private examiners, who this particular guy I found out was only a part timer two days a week, 6 hours total and a newbie...recommended busting me down to 50%, even though I snapped and broke down, spilled a glass of water on his computer ectopic, because of his apparent newbie status..felt like I was on a sinking ship with a guy who works at best buy! Arghh. Seems like things like that happen to me... I dont think i could weather another event like that However my doctors were not happy and wrote a supporting letter to va and saved me from that disaster! Sorry for ALL that...but had ti get it out..lol..very stressful Are you saying that you work for social security claims or something in some capacity?? Just curious Anyway, I appreciate your time an effort,,after all...I'm only one guy

This site "SHOWED ME THE WAY".. back in 2005 and forward. Always my goto. thank goodness for our founder Not sure if this question is appropriate...but, looking to see others experiences and opinions.. It may also be relevant to many who attain 100% pt and are dealing with ssdi as well. It all fits together I have been rated at 70% tdiu at 100% rate for ptsd since 2010. I also was awarded SSDI in 2011 I was awarded va p&t status in 2014. In 2016, SSDI sent me a review questionaire..I(have I worked, doctor appts, can I work and is ptsd the same) filled it out.... benefits continued!! I will say i've had continuous and ongoing care with the same v a doctors since 2008. We are all growing old together lol? My question is this... I just received another SSDI review questionnaire, ... may 2023 I thought after seven years they would stop asking, especially since i'm under v a care and they supposedly have my records This is sending shock waves of anxiety through my bones... Which makes me always feel like somebody's gonna try and take something away from me ...kind of part of my thing. Besides answering obviously questions.. No I can't work, yes i've been seeing MENTAL HEALTH doctors Every month, no I can't work and ptsd hasn't changed.... There is a remarks box...should I indicate my status with the va ...or is that too much info to throw a red flag..because they should already have that info...why are they asking if they already have access to my file,, etc etc.. It kind of throws me into a panic paranoia that what life I have left, and trying to cope, as I know it, may end soon.. logic, would throw in a lol chuckle, but this FEELS far to serious I haven't been able to function since I recieved this.. Am I making too much out of this? Your opinions really DO count for something Thank you USAF
