0 HadIt.com Elder john999 Posted January 8, 2017 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted January 8, 2017 I got TDIU but not P&T back in 2002. I appealed the denial of my Chapter 35 benefits. It took about a year for my DRO appeal to be heard. By that time enough time had gone by so that VA admitted that I was P&T just based on their own records of treatment. If you have to do backflips and head stands get your TDIU or 100% and then go for SMC "S" and any other claim you can get. If you get TDIU plus 60% you can get SMC "S" as a statutory benefit. I did it under Peake vs Bradley which is he decision that grants TDIU vets are entitled to "S" which means another $300 a month. In general the VA either hides the facts from you are out right lies. Are you getting TDIU? John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your rating decision that granted 100 percent should have some narrative in it addressing P&T or scheduling of future exams. Read it over again thoroughly and scan in exactly what it states on this issue. jfrei 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stay in treatment at the VA so they can't suddenly decide you need a C&P 20 years from now. Even if you just show up once every three months and throw the meds away try and stay in the VA loop. Th

There's been debates about this working and getting IU. SOME SAY ITS OK TO WORK KEEPING THE INCOME DOWN BELOW POVERTY LEVEL. I disagree with that anytime a veteran gets an IU award its beca
