I am working on getting my back injury service-connected. I have Dr. Anaise writing a nexus letter and have one sworn statement from a soldier who was with me in Afghanistan during the incident. I am having a fusion done on my lower back in October. I am not sure if I will have this service connected before then. Jan Dils Law firm is doing my appeal case and we don't have a hearing date yet. Will the VA back pay convalescent pay if it gets connected after the surgery? And can you get TDIU while you are working and then quit working, I cannot really quit my job until I would be approved as I have a family to support.

TDIU is because you can not work. I ended up losing my business because of my back, out of work 1.5 years before 60% disability kicked in. (I almost lost everything.) IF you get a statement from emplo

Thanks man. Right now im 30% but that will be jumping fairly soon im pretty certain. My main concern was after my surgery I will be off and if I am unable to return I will still be considered employed
