Question
Susan
The letter arrived today. I posted in the Success forum because I just had to do that. Finally!! I am very happy with the win, but I feel that the retro is at least one third of what it should be. When I reread the letter I saw that it was "estimated amounts". I guess there could be more than the estimate. Also there is no mention of the funeral and burial benefit and I had submitted that information. There were papers and a pamphlet about DEA education benefits. One paper advised to check with the County VSO for taxes and other benefits. I will be sending the benefit info to NVLSP so that they can verify correct amounts. I have one year to disagree if anything is wrong. Since 1993 they awarded 30% for all years for Don except the year plus one or two months recuperation after bypass surgery. That year was rated at 100%. The one year was held out on DIC because for some reason the date shows that I applied in 2001 which is wrong because I filed in 2000. That date is questionable and looks to be a whited out zero to "create" a number one from a zero. And as expectted DIC ended in June of 2007 since I remarried in July of 2007. Once my divorce is finalized, I will be able to reapply for DIC.
Thanks everyone for the support and guidance I have received and especially to Berta and Chuck for their help and insight on Nehmer.
