RUREADY Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 In later part of 77-82 A lot of vets says they were told you cant file a claim with VA if you took the severance pay for that condition you medical out with. I know they told me the same bull, but I'm hard headed and file anyway. I been talking with some vets that got medical in 2000 and they are scare to file because of this.

0 Moderator brokensoldier244th Posted September 11, 2016 Moderator Share Posted September 11, 2016 Your severance is withheld out of the eventual award, if granted, so you may not 'get' any money for months or years depending on your severance amount.That is the way it is now. My dad got out in 75 and never mentioned anything about not being able to file after his stint in the Marines. He didnt file then, but that is because he took his NCO rank back into the Army and got a slightly better deal out of it due to having been Recon in the Marines. He filed later in life though.

0 Moderator brokensoldier244th Posted September 11, 2016 Moderator Share Posted September 11, 2016 Yup. I wonder if that is what confused some, and it eventually found its way to a barracks lawyer that started proclaiming that you couldn't file. The Earth is degenerating these days.

0 RUREADY Posted September 11, 2016 Author Share Posted September 11, 2016 I medical out for bad ankle and feet's ankle kept breaking on me at 10% and my only sc disability is my feet at 0% everything else is secondary to the feet ,so I owe nothing for that but how many more don't know this, I had a lot of vets lately tell me about this happen to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Andyman73 Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 That is because of the money. Someone fed someone else a plate of crap, which has been spread like a disease. Truth is this, you have the right to claim anything that you suffered from while serving, even med board stuff. You most likely will have to forfeit your VA comp till it equals what you received from the medical discharge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 RUREADY Posted September 12, 2016 Author Share Posted September 12, 2016 (edited) Its not what VA was telling vet and seems to me its still happening I owe nothing because its 0% rated unless they started paying for A 0% rating what can I owe??? Been there none that. I will explain I get 0 for my feet but my feet connect to my legs (radiculopathy,20% each), my legs connects to my back (DDD 40%), MY back connects to my Shoulders( 20% each) my shoulders connects to my arms and hands 20% numbness in arms & carpel tunnel from the use of a cane for my back, and depression from all that 30%. all secondary to bad feet & ankles Edited September 12, 2016 by RUREADY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to have the following tatoo'd on your arm so you can remember it: "You can not believe everything the VA tells you". If you are in doubt, re read the above quote. Go ahead
