Congrats. That is a miracle. I got TDIU first before getting SSDI benefits. I had to go to the admin hearing with a judge as someone above had to. I think the judge was sympathetic to Veterans but it still took over a year.

I got SSD in 4 months they even backdated my start to last day I actually worked so I got a nice retro check. VA took 5 and 1/2 years and they backdated 27 months short of time I filed.

Congrats on your win.

Veterans deserve real choice for their health care.
