Moderator broncovet Posted January 5, 2019 Moderator Share Posted January 5, 2019 Congratulations!!!! That should be a big payday, depending on where you were at before you got your 100 percent.

rag ft myers Posted January 6, 2019 Author Share Posted January 6, 2019 yes BroncoVet--many thanks to hadit.com , I was very worried along this whole trail-y'all made it bearable. Thank you. And as long as my body, mind and sould hold out and with God's grace I am finally set. 15 years of waiting ? I was at 60% but went to 100% retro back for 15 years. Already have a dental appt scheduled with VA as well-what a relief ! I know as well or better than anyone it is hell-but hang in there poohthewinnie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulstrgn Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Congratulations on your win...use your back pay wisely but also enjoy it!! I am not an attorney or an a credited VA rep. These are my personal opinions and experiences, always remember what worked for me may not work for you. You as the veteran are your own best advocate and no one knows your disabilities better than you. It is highly recommended that you as the veteran research and verify that any opinion given meets your specific situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
