Sould I Do Anything About It?

[BUZZ]

Recently I receive my rating and came across a statement in my papers that isn't right.It deals with my past employment.It said that I was offer work,but decided to retire instead I think they misunstood me,because I agree to work,but my back was hurting and they decided to put me on retirement. The Dav rep told me not to worry about it,what should I do?

Buzz, take a look at my previous message(i just edited it to try to make it more clear). I think you are right to worry about the incorrect statement(but dont stress out over it).

I agree - Under the Privacy Act an individual should be able to expect that the information a Government agency keeps on them is timely, complete, and accurate. People should not have to tolerate having inaccurate information in a record a Government agency keeps on them. Even if it doesn't affect the decision on THAT claim - they should have the right to have inaccurate information corrected.
