I Have A Cue, A Nod, A Rating Increase Request And A New Condition To Get Sc For...best Way To Do This?
Rate this question
Question
Bill (USAF Retired)
The good news: VA bumped me from 70% to 80% and have finally gotten off their duffs and paid me $14K in back pay (from date of retirement to date of award). Mrs. Bill is most pleased with me for not giving up the fight.
The bad news is that I have Round 2, a four-part claim. I need to:
1) NOD a rating I just received, and request a bump from 50% to 70%.
2) CUE my original rating for another condition. The record AND the rating decision both recite facts which clearly call for a 30% rating instead of the 10% I got.
3) Apply for service connection and rating of a new condition, because it is secondary to an existing 50% rated condition.
4) Apply for increase from 10% to 30% in yet another condition. I was at 10% because it was partially controlled with medication, but the doc says continuing to take said medication could kill me. That got my attention and I stopped taking it, so the condition is no longer controlled and has worsened.
Question: Can I do all of this in one claim, or do I need to split it into multiple submissions (NOD, CUE, and then do #3 and #4 as a combined claim)?
Thanks in advance for any insight or suggestions you care to provide.
Bill
