tdiu Thanks To All

[Bravo6]

Just got a call from the VRE counselor that did my Independent Living assessment last friday. He told me that I was jusdt approved for TDIU and they were rating another new condition as well. Just waiting for the official letter within the next few days! Retro pay as well!

I just wanted to thank those that have help me and my family, finally get the benefits that I DESERVED!

I will pray for those still going through the process of fighting the VA to get the benefits that they DESERVE!

God Bless each and everyone of you! God Speed!

Sincerely,

B6 congrats to you. Enjoy it slowly.

However, I find it difficult to believe the VRE counselor has that much pull...3 yrs ago I was approved for VRE and I am 100% disabled from SSDI for over 7 yrs, and then I was placed in ILP because of my disabilities, yet my claim was at BVA almost 2 yrs, and it is almost 7 yrs old and it was remanded back to my VARO...no VRE reports sent to VARO to validate my disabilities to bump me up to 100%.

Am I missing something here? I even sent letters to BVA stating I requested my VRE copies over 10 times with no avail. Yes the OT came to my house and made recommendations...yet VARO seems to overlook what VRE says regarding my disabilities.

BERTA, what is the best way to follow through?

I've had a physical assessment done by both PT and OT recently.....I had to do physical tests in which they had me pull or push different weights for distances. I performed Poorly!

Then I had those test(s) located in my file for VRE. Once he (VRE Counsleor) seen that I did those test and did poorly. They scheduled me for an in-home assessment from ILS. Once I had a chance to discuss my situation with the VRE counselor at my house, he decided that I was unemployable due to my OT and PT examination and tests.

Hope that clarifies the steps involved in being awarded TDIU for me!

God Speed,

How long did it take for them to come in and do the assessment? It's been almost 3 weeks since I got a call from my Voc-Rehab counselor telling me they would contact me in the near future.

WildBill had an appointment last month with the psychologist from VocRehab who told him he was unemployable. Got a letter in the mail yesterday saying they want to talk to him. Need additional information. I sure hope things are looking up! Going to call in the AM.
