I wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions/comments on my TDIU claim.......
I filed for TDIU in 10/08/2010 b/c of recommendations by 2 Neurosurgeons (non VA), my primary care doc, & my pain management doc (both VA) & the 24/7 pain that i am in. I am currently rated at 70% & my service connected injury to my back plus secondary conditions have deteriorated to the point that I can no longer work. I was medically discharged in 2005 and my condition has continued to only worsen since my injury. I can't understand why my claim has been considered ready to rate since 05/12/2011 & according to the VA it has never moved down to "gather evidence" & then back to ready to rate, which obviously slows the claim down, but since it has not done that I can't understand why it is taken more than 3 times the average once it is ready to rate. I tried a congressional inquiry, but that was useless, b/c all they did was again give me the current status. I made an inquiry request for someone to call me as to why it is taking so long & was told to give them 7-10 business days to call, but once that passed I called & said no one has called & I was told to give it 30 days & then call back & they will assign a "coach" to see what is holding it up. I even tried to file an expedite request based off of financial hardship, but was told that I'm just above the cutoff to expedite it. I don't know what else to do. I would appreciate anyones help, comments, suggestions, experience, etc. Thank you in advance!
