  1. ...are the calculations for each month ran as if it's what the veteran is to be paid that month for both disabilities combined w/VA math with that percentage forward and after the time frame the 3rd one is awarded combine the 3 disabilities into one with VA math again and proceed to present date to establish the total  retro pay amount owed or does the VA just pay the veteran the amount for the current disability percentage awarded times the months it took to be granted ???

    I found a retro calculator online at https://www.hillandponton.com/va-retro-disability-calculator/, but I am not certain how accurate it may be. When I verified my retro, I did mine by hand. It was a lot of work.

    If your clear on the EED and know all the percentages of the disability's  just look up the pay rate for all the different disability's and the Award date and figure them that way go from the Award Date to the present

      do each disability separate  and you should be pretty close.

    Now what makes it hard is if any of these disability's have been paid monthly and  an increase is involved  then Adjustments must be figured in and subtracted from what has been paid and the new percentage figured in

    its complicated with Adjustments.

     

     

     

  2. ... call a least 14 days in advance and do the follow up calls the last 5 business days to ensure that the refill is being addressed...! Bay Pines is currently getting 'hammered' for being so called too 'lenient' with opiates and one has to come in every 3 mths, instead of the previous 6 mth check up, also heard that when one complains that their current meds aren't that effective that they go into 'chop-chop' mode and terminate the meds completely, forcing the vet to go into the civilian sector for assistance/treatment...!

  3. ... I'd like to pick some geeks brains and wonder if anyone has come across an app that will decipher my old handwritten VA notes and convert them to text, I've briefly

    searched the google play store and they have so many, but not specifically what I want, so far... To be able to take a pic of the page w/all the hand written data and hav

    -ing an app decipher it and convert it to text would be great and also save me a lot of $$$ using something like that instead of using something like what a court's deposi

    -tion transcript conversion to text company does - recordings to text, but in this case, scanned handwriting to text... any/all ideas or leads would be greatly appreciated...

  4. ...I have the same problem 'Tino...! I provided 6 'Sworn Statement's/Affidavits' from family, bankers, etc stating that I'm 'competent' in handling my 'financial affairs.' Also read 'FIDUCIARY/VA/Chuck75 HadIt.com Elder's post concerning this...! I also followed Pete992's advice from one of his past post's concerning asking the VA's shrink to make a note in ones progress report pertaining to their competency, all excellent advice...! Hopefully this will do it for us...!

  5. SHOUT OUT…! 

                           Anyone know the status of our Brother, Jerrel condition since last week….?

     

    ....I didn't know what cateorgy to post this so I choose  the top one that show's up on my home screen, for ol' Jerrel has been on my heart for about a week now, even thou he sounds like he's a mile away from the 'mike' when I listen to his show's, he's much closer to my heart and I pray that God Almighty is answering all our prayers for him

  6. ...yeah, you can do as I do Gastone and never sign out, because having to reenter the P/W every time I log in - bytes...! If I'm online, I'm on Hadit, and it's become my, so to say 'Lifeline,' to continue sucking air and surviving another day, so someday, God willing, I'll be able to assist other Vets the way that all my bros & sis, such as yourself, does here on this site...! 

  7. ...check out the radio show brother, as the saying goes 'nothing ventured, nothing gained...!' Anyway for me to learn how to increase my chances of winning my claims is a 'positive' to me, I listen to the show and get some additional knowledge, while I'm researching something else on hadit or another website, I've learned so much by just 'pulling the plug's outta my ears' and paying attention with an 'open mind' to what's currently going on in the VA arena.

  8. Prayers coming your way Jerrel, if possible try to get out of that hospital and get back home and have a nurse take care of you there, and return after you've gotten' over the cold, to attend to your hip, pray about it and try to ask to be wheel chaired outside to breathe in the fresh air, now is not your time Jerrel, fight the good fight of Faith...!
