Running Through My Checks

[yoggie2]

I am up with the sun running through my file that I plan to lay it out on them and I am a might nervous than SSD Hearing..But from what I understand he should break the ice and its a lots less informal yeah? or should I just straight out ask her/him? Sorry if I am parroting things but I need this one. This claim was put together by hadit,,"really" there is know way I could have put a argument together, how in the world does the VARO expect someone in this frame of mind to put a fight like this together? using an SO? well I'll tell you that went disastrous for me, mine (DAV) told me it couldn't be done and did crapolla to help perfect my claim zilch, zero, nada nothing, looked at me as if I was wasting my time. Now look at me going to a hearing loaded with evidence. Yogg

yoggie,

My suggestion:

Any Evidence that you have and feel that VA has not adressed

and considered in their decisions, MAKE SURE to read a list of

Evidence Items into the record. No matter if they try to make it

seem informal, you will be nervous as hell.

Good luck buddy.

Yeah, I plan to do this because I had so much evidence they just ignored, and they doctor shopped as well but I am not going to call them out on this but I plan to let them know that I did not and hopefully they will get the Idea they did and if not my lawyer will be set up to deliver it at the BVA if it goes that far. I also will state the fact that SSD was granted "fully and favorably" solely to my service connected injuries and PTSD... I have over kill on the evidence but I know they will say they were confused with it all if I am denied again..Rich

Hey Yogg:

Hope all goes well tomorrow. Please let us know how the interview goes while it is fresh. If you have a highlighter, make sure you highlight the statements that benefit you in your records. Key words that match the conditions for the rating you are hoping for.

Good luck!

Yoggie:

Good luck and no matter what happens be nice to the DRO. I think that you have all that you need.

I would not even bring up the topic of doctor shopping. Stay positive and just present your evidence for PTSD. You have great evidence since you won at the SSA in front of an administrative judge who has a lot more on the ball than a DRO.

DRO hearings are very informal. The DRO will keep a transcript of what is said when you go on the record. You just get your evidence organized, and write a brief outline of what you want to say. It is not adversarial. The DRO wants a nice and peaceful hearing. You have powerful evidence so that will speak for you as long as it is in the record. This is your chance to look a VA decider in the eye, and then he sees that you are a human being and not just a pile of paper.

Rich,

Stay calm and know that I will be thinking about you.

Be sure to post and let us know how things went.

Always,

Betty
