ptsd Automatically Iu Deferred?

[CorCor]

I really keep to myself and don't really post becuase I posted on here one day and someone guy jumped all over me for trying to ask a question about my PTSD claim for sexual harrasement and assult. I was hoping someone can answer a question for me or give me your opionion on the matter if you have been through something similar.

I was 20% SC last year for my Blood pressure and Tinitus. My Back, PTSD and Depression was deferred. It has been almost a year and the system and a source of mine says I was finally rated on the 28th of Jan. The personal Trauma was rated @ 70 and I am rated at a total 0f 80% SC. I recieved a Phone call from Sacramento or Oakland telling me I would be hearing something in 10 to 15 days in regard to my claim. The system is saying the I am IU deferred. I did not apply for IU..don't really know about it and am confused. Is this something that is normally done? .

I agree that the VA "inferred" TDIU.

You cane expect to receive a TDIU frm. I have never seen VA award TDIU without receipt of this form.

On # 18 on the form check yes and then applyu for SSA disability benefits.

If you get SSA now, make sure the VA knows this and what for.

Under Remarks, Question 25 -refer them to separate page and then tell them of the side affects of your SC meds that render you unable to work and tell them any other info that would show you are unemployable.

By law the VA is supposed to consider EVERY Benefit you would be entitled to under your claim, so they should have automatically considered TDIU with the ratings you got(" The personal Trauma was rated @ 70%") ...considering you were not working...
