Guest zippitydoda Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 (edited) I was wondering what form(s) I would have to file in order to have my I.U. rated to see if I was P & T? I have a new doctor, since I moved, and I don't know how willing or unwilling he is to write his opinions. My I.U. was granted 7 months ago and I have an exam in about 2 years. I figure I could wait until then. I have continued to be on the medication that granted me 60%, in fact, since my exam in January, I have been on it more than I ever have. Just curious. All opinions welcomed. thank you. Edited September 3, 2005 by zippitydoda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newbe Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 hello all , i'm new to the board and thank heaven there's such a site. i'm currently at 50% and applied for IU. i submitted documentation that shows living below the poverty level since 1996. i've not worked even half time since 1999. i submitted statements from previous employers that say i'm not employable. my question is: if i submit an appeal within one year and can get my outside physician to submit medical documentation that i am unemployable and even write that i'm unemployable will this help my claim tremendously. or is this a waste of time? i was denied an increase to when i was 20% for so long and finaly after getting a second opinion did VA let up. Someone please help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
