Question
dragrazor
I did some searching on here before asking this question but found different scenarios and outcomes. I recently went from 10% disability to 40%. I had entered all my families information when i received the initial 10%. When i applied for ptsd, i was awarded 30%. When i applied for ptsd, i did not furnish the dependent information because i had already done that. When i was awarded the 40%, i went on ebenefits and saw that i was being paid as single with no dependents. I called my d.a.v. office and was told that i can apply on ebenefits. I went on ebenefits and applied for dependents. Since i had already sent all the dependents info(birth certificates,marriage license,etc), ebenefits did not require me to send them again thank god. anyways, i applied and to my surprise, it showed complete and my award went up to $749. I received a letter with all the explanation as to how i will be paid in regards to my childrens ages. It showed that it will be retroactive to november of 2013. The letter also stated that i should receive payment for my dependents retro in approximately 15 days. The 15 days have come and gone. Is this just protocol for them to put a time frame? Is this one of those times where i wont see payment for months? I received my retro for single and no dependents fairly quickly after i was awarded the 30% ptsd so i was hoping for a quick retro pay on the dependents. Any ideas? Thank you in advance.
