I Successfully Was Award 100% Iu P And T, But They Didn't Pay Back To Date Of Claim?

Question

So, my original date of filing for IU was Jan. 2011, denied in August of 2013, sent in new evidence (based on social security awarding me disability back to 2009 for my sc disabiities), then VA awards me 100% IU PT, in Feb 2014 but only paid me back to September of 2013. The only thing I see in any of my records with that date is a letter I requested from Voc. rehab to add that I was no longer in voc. rehab. the letter was dated in september but I had been out of voc. rehab recommended by my shrink since Nov of 2012. Isn't it odd to not give me backpay to even the day I filed for reconsideration? (Feb 2013). I feel I should have been backpaid to the original claim date but I just got a denial saying that they won't reconsider without additional information. I am at a loss, any advice?

Thanks!

The ALJ can decide a date of disability onset.

Retro depends on his award date.

A Veteran is a person who served this country. Treat them with respect.

Treat them with the upmost respect. I do. Rejection is not a sign of failure. Failure is not an option, Medical opinions and evidence wins claims. Trust in others is a virtue but you take the T out of Trust and you are left with Rust so be wise about who you are dealing with.

Jbasser gave you the correct answer to you post, along with the regulations that backs it up.Y out should CAREFULLY read these and you have your answer. (Date entitlement arose) Concentrate on that theory.
