One Year Window Since Decision And Quick Claim (Fdc)

Rate this question

Question

My last decision date was Aug 18 2014. I was bumped from 40% to 70%

Several of the claims received no rating due to not enough evidence

Sleep apnea

Both knees

High blood pressure

Depression secondary to hearing loss

In Mar 2015 I started the quick claim fdc process. I have yet to submit my claims as Im waiting on IMEs from Dr Bash. The Va has assured me that I have a one year window to submit my quick claims. So from Mar 2015 till Mar 2016

My question is this???

How do I keep my one year date from my august 2014 decision date? I would like to receive retro pay on the hypertension knees depression ect.

Will a simple notice of disagreement with these Aug 2014 decisions secure my retro pay?

Or have I screwed my self with the quick claim process I initiated in March 2015??

Thanks for any help

You need to file a NOD to preserve your effective date. You asked,

"Will a simple notice of disagreement with these Aug 2014 decisions secure my retro pay?"

No, but its probably your best shot. Nothing you can do will "secure your retro pay".

Failing to timely appeal may mean you have to meet a higher standard of review, CUE, to be awarded back pay.

The VA makes sure that nothing is simple. The VA has even greatly complicated things like adding dependents, which I have been trying to get done since 2002. They love to lose your documents, then issue a decision, "the record before agency is absent any record of xx docoument"
