Bva Video Hearing.....

[liamgero]

I'm 70% going for tdui 100%. I have a good case. My va neurologist wrote me a letter stating: Liam is unemployable due too his back and migrains. Which these are service connected 40.30 each. Will this be enough or will this letter help?

I meant if it's not remanded..Just a denial or an approval. How long for that? I know if it's remanded it will take a long time.

When you win at the BVA, your claim is sent back to the RO where you filed for rating purposes assuming it was a new or reopened claim. If it was one for increase, the BVA Judge would have that discretion to grant or deny an increased rating and also how high a percentage.From what I read, your appeal has yet to be decided. Once it is, and if you win, then the claim will be sent back (remanded) to the RO for a rating. BVA and VLJs do not award ratings -only VARO raters. If you disagree with the rating, you may appeal that back to the BVA. I use the term remand to mean "sent back to the VARO for rating when you win". As indicated above, the delay once it arrives back will be exasperating. Allow three months for a rating to ensue from the time it returns from the BVA. I have friends who have been waiting for Baltimore to rate them after they won in January.

Thank you for all the info. My lawyer told me about 4 months if it's a denial or approval. He said if it's a remanded on a issue it will take atleast a year...
