Inthewind Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I've been 100% P&T with 70% PTSD since 2010 and I'm wondering if I qualify for any type of SMC. My total rating if I add everything up is 240%, but I know it's not calculated by just taking everything and adding them up. It doesn't speak to SMC in my award letter or rating decision either, which is why I'm asking this question. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder Buck52 Posted April 28, 2017 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted April 28, 2017 Yes, you can request the VA to CUE them self back to the 70% PTSD Award date in 2010. if you were 100% P&T back then (2010) and recieved the 70% PTSD Award they should have inferred the SMC-S H.B. It meets the SMC Criteria when a veteran is at a 100% S.C. Rating and has another separate 60% S.C. Rating or higher then the VA is required as mandatory statue to infer the SMC -S -H.B.

Inthewind Posted April 28, 2017 Author Share Posted April 28, 2017 Hi Buck52, I was rated for the 70% PTSD was when I received an increase to 100% P&T from 50%. So basically, the 100% P&T was a product of the 70% PTSD, along with increased/additions of several other ratings. Does this fit the category you speak of?

HadIt.com Elder Buck52 Posted April 28, 2017 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted April 28, 2017 Yes if you have disability's that add up over the 60% and your 100 % P&T You should qualify Check out asknod blog he explains how SMC is Illustrated '' so-to-speak'' https://asknod.org/2013/02/27/special-monthly-compensation-what-is-it/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
