tdiu TDIU + P&T

[commodog]

Hey guys.
So, I received my award letter, a good chunk of backpay, and my AB8 and other forms clearly indicate permanent and total.

My question(s):
Do I still have to recertify every year for TDIU?
Will I still expect a 5 year review of my rating?

Thanks!

As it stands now, yes to both questions.

I read recently that the VA has proposed (hasn't been voted on yet) a change to the filing requirements of the 21-2140 to 55. Currently, 70 is the cut-off age.

Very cool, Gastone, and thanks. 
You're always helpful.

I just wanted to know where I sit, and what to expect.

Good answer, gastone.  

I dont think you need to worry about a "review" of your rating in 5 years with TDIU, that is, unless you start working again.  Then you have a problem.  

Just fill in the form every year, even if VA fails to send it to you.

I don't think they send out the form in anymore (probably a VA sneak) to send out proposal's to reduce, 

I just send it in every year on my anniversary award date.
