In Nov. 2010 BVA gave me a full grant for PTSD, also granted no more than 10% Radiculipathy.
They remanded my claim for Pain/Mood disorder and denied a claim for an increase for Lumbar fractures L2L3. Was told my claim is back at RO and is in open staus.
1. I called the 800 number to find out if my BVA grants have been sent to the raters. I was told by the 800 rep that the RO WILL NOT give me a decision and grant me benefits for the PTSD nor the Radiculipathy until they get this Pain/Mood disorder remand finished. I was wondering if she was right or again I am getting false info. from these people.
2. I also have a TDIU open claim...she said that since my remand is still in affect and because I just recently opened and initial claim on my neck...that the RO WILL NOT make a decision on my TDIU till ALL Claims ARE FINAL.
3. I also aked how to submit paperwork to show that on an award I received in May 2010 was effective on the wrong date. I have the initial claim opened 9 months earlier than what they awarded me. She told me that if it was after a year of being awarded...that you cannot have them go back and change their mistake on the effective date. Even if you have an had an initial claim on record. She also stated that if I sent them evidence to back up my argument for the right effective date for my award...that they will not pay me back monies until they get these other issues finalized. If I was already awarded this claim in 2010...why cant they go back and change their mistake if I prove I was right? This issue was placed on remand by the BVA but this is an award that they already allowed and paid me(just wrong effective date)
