Question
Sidney56
I am hoping that someone can shed some light on this situation. I am in dire need of some help! I was rated for a traumatic head injury for 10%. That rating was increased to 20% for residual effects of head injury. I filed a NOD for an increase in my rating considering new evidence from VA doc and independent doc. Submitted new evidence with filing. I was denied on the basis of the head injury and not mental condition as requested. Following is excerpt from SOC.
I did not request a rating on my head injury, but on a the diagnosed mental condition. Isn't this erroneous on their part? I filed a form-9 and was told that it will take 2-5 years to reprocess. I will be homeless by then. Is there anything I can do to expedite this process. I have contacted my Congressman and Senator, but I am getting the impression that they can't do anymore than I can. HELP!
