I received a rating of 50% for PTSD that had an effective date of June 2008. I received the backpay and all was well. In the rating decision there was a note that a higher rating of 70% is not warranted unless you meet specific criteria... Well, I DID meet that criteria so I filed a request for reconsideration of the percentage and asked for 70% for PTSD. I had my therapist submit a new assessment with a lower GAF score and I also wrote a letter as to how I have met the criteria.
Now I am in a panic regarding how they are going to calculate my backpay? Will they back pay me to june 2008 as 70% for PTSD or will they be jerks and just backpay me from 11/29/2010 when they received the request for reconsideration??
I am so stressed about this and I cant seem to find an answer anywhere!!
Thanks in advance for your help!!
