ptsd Rating

[Abe111]

My cousin just called the Buffalo RO. Had his C&P for his injuries he recieved in Iraq done on May 2. His claim was rated on May 17. He recieved 70% for PTSD, 40% for left knee, 40% for right knee. They would not tell him his complete rating because of a "bilateral factor" and that is done in a different department within the RO? Can someone do the math for me so I can tell him. Thanks for you help.

This was done rather fast? He was very surprised.

Abe:

Is he able to work? If he is not he needs to ask for TDIU 100%. If not working should also askfor Social Security.

That adds up to 90 percent, Like Pete said, IU is the best route to follow.

That's great news for him and me. My c&p was May 15 in Buffalo so maybe I'll hear from them soon. I hope he didn't have to go through all the bs some of us have.
