0 Berta Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Andyman I am glad you are a Prayer...I am one of the Prayer Warriors at my church and we pray always for all of our nation's disabled veterans, all AD men and women, and their families and I sure am praying for you. I have also , as a hardcore claimant for 2 decades,have always prayed for the VA to be able to properly assess my evidence. That often took them many years to do but Patience ,Probative evidence, and Prayers have more Power than we often realize.

Do you remember what your S/C % was in 2006? Also, if the contention they gave you EED doesn't change the overall % you will not get retro... I was at 40% from 08/2000 till 04/2015. So I'm expecting that if they give me the current 30% for my feet as the EED rating, also, that it would bump my then 40 to 60%. And with 3 dependents from 01/06 till present, that would be approx $250 a month per 10% increase. So at the low end, could be $250 times all those months, or $500, which I think is most likely, and slim chance of $750, if the bump adjusts my previous 40 to 70%, if the bilateral factor gives enough boost. Berta, Yes, I pray for all of us here, and in general, as well, Vets, their families, and those that assist Vets in any way, shape, or form, too.

0 HadIt.com Elder Buck52 Posted July 28, 2016 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted July 28, 2016 Fingers crossed for ya Andyman...Think Positive or Think BIG............Either way I bet it's going to be a substantial amount! Remember anything over 25.000.00 has to have three signatures...that last signature is what takes more time they go over it with a fine fine tooth comb from what I understand. Everything sounds like it's in your favor buddy! Andyman73 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Andyman73 Posted July 28, 2016 Author Share Posted July 28, 2016 Buck, Thanks, man...finally got something from the VA(will be getting)that I should have had years ago. Had told the boss(wife) that our lives would have been so much different if this would have been given when it should have...that 3rd baby she wanted, and so on. And for me, even, my first very own new car. And a better life for my kids, even. I sure hate going with out, so they don't have to grow up like I did. I can't tell you what it feels like, having to ask the wife for a few more bucks for gas, till payday. I can't even treat her right, in that sense, if I can barely afford any extras from my allowance/gas money. But this will be a HUGE relief, pay down enough debt to literally free up a significant portion of my take home. Hope that 3rd signer is in the zone and applies their :"John Hancock" to my document soonest! Andy sunnyh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Navy4life, I get all shivery just thinking about it, how it will change my life, for the better. Even more so that my rate increases have...since they were a monthly increase with little to no retro. I can hardly wait to tell my wife, since she knows I go with out any luxuries to ensure that she and the kids don't have to skip out. This will be my first reward/bonus/lottery prize/payout that is bigger than a take home check, or tax return. Andy sunnyh and smoothc100 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, everybody. Man, it feels good to get something that I should have had all along. At least now I can pay for IMO/IME if I need it with my appeals. I am expecting a call back from a NOVA atto
