So I recieved my proposed rating of 90% "see below". I know they low balled me on a couple of issues, and a couple of those "10%'s" could/should easily be 20-30% or more. Since I got 90% already, "I feel lucky and fortunate to recieve this much"
Is there any benefite to me appealing their decisions on some of the below contentions? (NOTE) I dont think any of my contentions that I would appeal would garner a 50% or more rating. Maybe 50% if I am lucky.
Since I am at 90%, can I apply for the TDIU even if I plan on working when I get out?
