I carry TVC, Texas Veterans Commission as my Veteran Service Organization. Jim Strickland calls them one of the better ones. I called them to check the status of my appeal which they told had received a grant with which I should be, not just "pleased, but "very pleased." So much so with what was granted, that I should want or be willing to drop certain parts of mt claim. From my perspective, the only thing that will do that for me is an increase to minimum of 70% and IU but I didn't say that to the guy. Anyway, its been the old waiting game again.
Being onn pins & needles, tenter hooks, take your pick, I called TVC today to check on the progress. (the 800 # doesn't even know a grant has been made) The fellow looks and says hold up. They, TVC, have my file. It was sent to them but he couldn't say why. My regular contact there (who was in hearing earlier) was going to lunch by then but said he wouldcall me afterwards... OHH--Kay!
It was much later but he actually did call back. They wanted a counselor to talk to me about accepting what they have approved while dropping the rest. If theyhave granted the IU, with at least 70% s/c, I will be fine with that.
B~U~T~!
I DO NOT want to lock myself out of anything I may need to pursue later. What I would like to know is what specific action, what wording, will leave me the option of reopening a condition, either named in my present claims or as something new, later on.

Hi all.
I carry TVC, Texas Veterans Commission as my Veteran Service Organization. Jim Strickland calls them one of the better ones. I called them to check the status of my appeal which they told had received a grant with which I should be, not just "pleased, but "very pleased." So much so with what was granted, that I should want or be willing to drop certain parts of mt claim. From my perspective, the only thing that will do that for me is an increase to minimum of 70% and IU but I didn't say that to the guy. Anyway, its been the old waiting game again.
