Veterans Said This All Along

[broncovet]

The VA OIG now says that Pittsburg RO employees delay Veterans claims to get bonus money.

Are we supposed to believe that this does not happen in other Regional Offices?

You can bet the VA will do one of two things:

1. Say this is an "isolated incident" and that corrective action has been taken. Or

2. Remain silent on the issue, covering it up all together and not responding to it at all.

The story is here:

watchdog: VA delays claims for bonuses

My claim took 7 years and I lost my home during that time. I wonder how much of a bonus VA employees got by causing me to loose my home?

Most of the money goes to VA Hospitals and Facilities. The Veterans who get Service Connection and Pension are probably closer to 20% of the budget. The figures are available but I don't have time to look them up.
