Hello Hadit Community. Just to refresh anyone's memory on our case.......my husband appealed a rating decision on migraines in 2011. He had his hearing in April 2017 at which time the judge discussed the possibility of TDIU because he is unable to work. He filed TDIU claim that day with his VSO. In December 2017, that claim closed and was denied. When his appeal came before the judge in Feb. 2018, he made the IU claim a part of my husband's appeal. We received the BVA decision on March 7, 2018 stating his migraine increase rating to 50% was granted and the TDIU was remanded. Since that time, there had been no movement. We made IRIS inquiries and called the VSO several times. We called the WHITE HOUSE hotline about a month ago and received a response by email. Here is what it said:
Thank you for contacting the White House Hotline.
You inquired about your remand. Your claim is currently at the Appeals Resource Center, in the last stages of processing. Your claim has been reviewed a decision has been made and now your claim is being finalized. Once finalization is complete you will be notified.
We understand that this process is long and frustrating and we appreciate your service and your patience.
So, at this point, we know it is at the ARC. The part that says "Your claim has been reviewed, a decision has been made and now your claim is being finalized" is very vague. I don't know if the "claim" they are referring to is the migraine GRANT that has already been decided or the TDIU remand. Any insights from anyone?

Call again. Let the WH Hotline know that the answer was vague, and that your question still has not been answered, just like you put it here. They will re-open the inquiry.

Hi, Call again.

Sometimes, not always, they hold your award of monies until the remand is decided. This is especially the case if the remand could change your award. I have suffered through this myself as have many
