Rate this question

Question

I was just awarded full disability from SSA, and cant never work any

more how does the VA than rate me for PTSD if i cant work and am

disabilied ? I started my VA claim 4 months ago. Will they turn down

my PTSD since i cant work, but i attend 2 weekly meeting for PTSD

at the VA clinic and will be on going for a long time to receive

treatments as needed. MY GAF 39 and DDD were the reason i was

awarded by SSA at age 60. I was moved from SSI to full disability

March 17th and now will receive SSA monthly.

All replies will be accepted bless you

Thank you

Thanks your correct i was getting the score for ptsd and tinnitius, ddd, hearing all 4 of them.

But i hope to get at least 75% for PTSD alone and the others get me the 100% if not I will use the IU ( from SSA) disability awarded me as my kicker later with Agent Orange and PT Arthritius as part of my other 30 or 40% I need to make it total a 100% for all.

Bless you and thanks for your service also !

Not sure where you got 60% for PTSD

VA rates it at 10-30-50-70 & 100% per regulations:
