Question

Is there anything that I can do to persuade/encourage the VA to pay me my back pay? I had a claim settled over a year ago and have not received my back pay. There is currently a Retired Pay Adjustment and Authorization review in the E-benefits dated the same date as the decision. I know for fact that the "audit" has been returned from DFAS so I can't understand what the hold up is. The projected completion dates for these two claims is 09/16 - 12/17. I don't understand what the hold up is. The VA has already determined that I rate the increase and is paying me for it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Emailing Secretary McDonald got me timely results last year. Hopefully it will help you as well. I also had luck with one of my congresswomen.
