Question

How much weight does the GAF score have with the raters? I have been diagnosed with a mood disorder secondary to my SC condition. My GAF score is 48 and I have been put on Venlafaxine. My VSO filed a claim for me, as the diagnosis clearly states that the mood disorder is secondary to my SC condition. Anyone have any idea what I should expect?

Well, you need a letter from your doctor saying that you are unemployable due to your SC conditions. Then you submit all your evidence and the TDIU form and wait. You could be waiting up to six months or longer.
