carlie Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 On your most recent decision that increased you to a combined compensable evaluation of 80 percent - did the decision address IU somewhere in the narrative or Reasons and Bases Section ? Personally, I'd probably let the DRO know that IF IU is granted with P&T status - then I would consider all of my claim issues, to be satisfied and no further appeal would be necessary.

usmc89 Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 Carlie, I read through the award letter and there was no there was no mention of IU in it, but as u see from my OP the IU is with the DRO which i have and lawyer for. Plus i have Fibro that i had an C&P for which look favarable for me that is up at the DRO. should i talk to the lawyer about this an would they agree to this it has been about three years i like your idea about talking to dro but i can not the lawyer can only speak to him :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
