I Won 100% Sc Back To 1995

[jtg1966]

got a call from my atty today...he said that i won 100%sc p&t back to 1995 with retro of 352,000.00...

i just got 50% back in janurary for bipolar....but the DRO lied about the effective date i.e...the director of the st pete varo sent 2 letters to my congressmen rep and senator stating that i was inappeal...the dro ignored that and just gave me back to the date of those letters....also my 50% award was based on inpatient clinical records spanning the last 55 days of service which i spent in a psych ward.....

with that said...i've been calling and writing everyone i could think of....the Secretary, the Congressmen, the VAOIG, the VAOGC...the press....i've called the Secretary everyday since the janurary award complaining about the VA lying to congress and how that is a crime under title 18, chapter 47, sec. 1001....i'd gone to the US attorney and the FBI, requesting that charges be filed...and then out of the blue....they called my atty...and I won back to my original claim in 1995 under 38 cfr 3.156© ...

haven't rec'd the money yet...but the atty assures me that it should be forthcoming by 04/09/

I won I won I won....dancing around nakedly...

after the atty's 30 pieces of silver i'll get in the neighborhood of 290,000.00 (that oughtta cover a house, a new motorcycle, several "escorts", and a new car) that's a joke mostly....i am planning on buying a house because as a 100%sc p&t vet i'm tax exempt as far as property taxes go, and i've been homeless on and off since service...i want a motorcyle, I plan on buying a used one...and i need a new car, because my current one is a jalopy...

I haven't rec'd the money yet...but the atty assures me that it should be forthcoming by 04/09

I'm still kind of in shock...I WON a 15 year battle with them SOB's...I won...holy cow batman...

WOW! I'd be so elated that you'd have a hard time getting my feet back on the ground. It's so nice to read such great news. Truly makes it worth the 15 year battle you've been thru! Congratulations!

Congratulations

But what John said should be really thought about. That much retro in a lifetime annuity could bring you some good monthly cash for life.

Personally, I would not buy a new car. There are better deals on used ones that you can buy Right.

Give yourself some time and let this really sink in before you make any major purchases that you will instantly lose money on, you just fought to hard to long to get it.

jtg1966, you’ve got a lot of respect coming in my opinion! I have only gone through a DRO to this point and I can say with the economy in the miserable state it is in you and your attorney either had a great case/made a great case and absolutely had very much strength in determination. I know a little about that and my hat is off to you and congratulations!

Good to read a Veteran finally got what was due to them. Happy to know you are 1 more Vet who will be ok. Stay well. A good bed and a roof over your

head with a full belly is a great feeling to have.

Congrats on getting what is due to you. Finally. You waited long enough and sounds like you've been through alot.

[jtg1966]

Congrats.

Spend the retro wisely.

I would try to get VBA to pay or re-imburse me

for the attorneys fees.

jmho,

carlie

how would i go about trying to get the VBA to pay atty fees?

Nope never heard the likes of this before, but sure hope I will again. Check around at different banks for the best money yielding accounts. Remember alot of them require at least 25,000 in each account to get 3.5-4% interest not cd's and they usually let you have 6 accts so your money can make some for you. Congrats to you.

Check out some credit unions too as they offer 5% but you need to live in their county or work there.
