ptsd Drop In Rating On Ebenefits?

[WarBirdCentral]

Hello,

I was at 80% for the last year, went in again to get another eval because my shrink told me I now am clearly PTSD and to contact the county.

I did in March this year.

Today the Ebenefits status changed, to pending decision approval - I looked at my VA letter, which is weird because it shows the amount I am getting at 80%, the letter on the top dated June 3rd, but the effective date showing December 12 ( the time I was originally diagn. 80% ) and now it show 60 percent?

I have gotten worse, and I am not understanding, even the eval guy said I was worse and should be from 80 to 100%, yet ebenefits show a drop to 60%?

Is this a mistake? Can I appeal this if this 60% sticks to get at least my 80% back or is there something I need to do to go through the entire process again?

Thanks,

The VA is required to notify you of a pending/proposed decrease, and also to give you the opportunity to disagree.

The % shown in E-Benefits may or may not be in error, since the VA is known for screwing things up.

don't trust or have faith in e-benefits. It is often inaccurate and there have been times, included information pertaining to claims that the veteran never applied for. just wait until you receive your rating decision in the mail. then you will have a concrete answer, hopefully.
