Ken1,

I haven't checked the charts.

Since you have posted that you are already SC'd for Hearing loss

at 0 % - the "audio test results from induction center and at separation"

are irrelevant.

The new results may allow for a little increase.

jmho,

My question is why was an increase not included when I had the test a few months ago? I do not know where the VA draws the line in sand for hearing lost

Thanks

Did you ask for an increase? The VARO pretty much requires that a Veteran ask for anything before they give it to them

I did not ask for and increase, but at my hearing levels would I qualify?

Thanks
