Got Letter From Va Today !

[ammodad]

ok i received a letter from nso today ,"says the amc has received the most recent amc decision concerning my benefits a combined evaluation of 70% has been assigned as a result of the following actions service connection for respiratory disability to include asthma and copd is granted at 30% effective may 11 2005..

this letter is prior to your official notification the amc will inform you of the current monetary monthly and retroactive benefits to which you are entitled .....

not pretending to understand this so i need help at understanding what it is i am looking at and they still have the remanded section they haven't rated yet. how is it i determine the retro and what will it be based on the combined eval or the actual rating itself i guess thats the million dollar question thanks brothers and sis have a great day

VA math uses the "whole person" concept which is really hard to understand and explain that is why some people created the http://www.hadit.com/service_connected_disabilities_rating_calculator.php getting to 100% using multiple ratings is very hard to do, that is one of the reasons there are so many veterans rated as TDIU which pays the 100% rate going from 90% to 100% you would need a new issue that would be rated at least 50% or higher to get above the 95% needed to round up to 100% schedular VA math drives most people to the point of talking to themselves
