I thought there was a cut-off (end of July??). Check with prosthetics, but if you file now, you may have to wait until next year to see the $$.

I agree ... the cutoff for this year has passed. FWIW, I believe that even getting your request in by the end of July is still cutting it pretty close, because the request has to be completed at the VAMC and then go over to your friendly neighborhood VA Regional Office for action.

Download VA Form 21-8678 http://www.vba.va.go...rms/21-8678.pdf , complete it, and either mail it or take it to your local VAMC Prosthetics Department. Myself, I'd take the form in if at all possible so I can talk to the person running that segment of the program. I'd ask them to make the allowance permanent, instead of having to apply every year.
