"This letter is not intended to serve as your official notification from the Department of Veterans Affairs(VA)."
I have been 90% for a year and I applied for IU and was denied after I lost my job last July and haven't been able to work since.
It goes on to say:
The DAV has reviewed the most recent VA decision concerning your claim for benefits.
A combined evaluation of 100 percent plus entitlement to benefits at the 100 percent rate due to
individual unemployment has been assigned as a result of the following actions,
IU granted July 11, 2015 to March 8, 2016. so its been back dated to when I first applied so Back PAY may be possible? I hope.
My DAV rep told me over the phone that after March 8th I will be at the regular 100 percent rate" nothing mentioning P&T yet " what is regular 100%?
and it goes on to show increases from all SC issues.

My questions are;
1. How accurate are these DAV letters?
2. Is the letter from the DAV any indication that a VA award letter is closer to reaching my mail box within the next month?
3. And how long before I see any back pay or Raise in my current disability pay check.
Thank you all for your help, its been a real struggle but hopefully things will be easier to manage finically and reduce some of the stress on my wife and myself as I continue to battle my own
