Question Please

[marinevet1]

Need some past experience help.

I had 3 C&P's November 2nd 2010, they went into rating in Los Angeles

December 7th and when i called the 800 number today I was told my case

was rated the 21st.

My Questions is?

What happens after rating and how soon do they mail me the results

and how soon do they disburse funds.

The women said they mail out notiification soon but do they

answer this fast out of rating department

She said she couldt give me the rating information since it was

just rated over the phone. I had to be notificed by mail to recieve it.

Is this true or when can I call to get it.

Merry Christmas

Happy New Year

Thanks for your replies

They cannot tell you your rating over the phone. You are going to have to wait for the mail. Your claim is currently in the authorization stage. The national average for that process is 10-40 days. It seems like your claim went by pretty quick. I filed my claim 6 months ago and had my C&P in August. Just be patient abd wait on the mail or pay attention to your bank account if you have direct deposit.

Yes the whole case was done in 364 days from the filing date to rated finished date

They can tell you what your current ratings are and your current monthly benefit amount, which should be in the system, prior to receiving your decision and deposit. From that you should be able to tell how you did.

This is GREAT!!!!!

Does the VA know of the Direct Deposit as well as SSA?

I have direct deposit with VA and my retro offset check earlier this year, in a letter from VA, was to be transmitted to my regular bank.

However a few days later I found the check under a pile of snow in my mailbox as the mailbox door had blown open.

Hope your retro comes sooner and maybe it will arrive even before the official award letter.
