It took exactly two weeks after a BVA grant for 25k to hit my bank account today.

Congratulations! Great news

Unfortunately all BVA grants are not the same. I am well over six months from my BVA grant.

I wish you godspeed. This what I am worried about myself: if I win at the BVA, my claim will be over 3 years by then with 100% TDIU.

Hucast21 What do you mean "If I win at he BVA?" We are positive here. You WILL win, just a matter of when. Right?

I will win. It’s just that I can’t believe the VA does not even use their own CFR’s correctly. This is from my SOC:

”The examiner noted chronic migraines are defined as 15 or more headache days per month for more than three months. The examiner noted the medical record is silent and does not support a chronic migraine diagnosis.”

This is total bs and blatant denial because this is the CFR for rating migraines:

8100 Migraine:  
With very frequent completely prostrating and prolonged attacks productive of severe economic inadaptability 50
With characteristic prostrating attacks occurring on an average once a month over last several months 30
With characteristic prostrating attacks averaging one in 2 months over last several months 10
With less frequent attacks 0


My SMRs and VA treatment records show my migraines are on a weekly basis and the only treatment is laying down in a dark room (I have many more instances of sick call in the military, the attached image is just one example).

How in good conscience can you do this to a veteran is beyond me. Doubt has crept in and I know at the BVA level all evidence are examined but I still have doubts.

Also, the rater disregarded my IME w/IMO from a board-certified specialist has “telehealth.”

I truly wonder what goes through the mind of a rater.

After 3 years total, applied in nov 2018, denied and appealed, the board granted 100% TDIU june 21st 2021, still haven’t received a dollar yet. So far it’s been 4 months since approval. i’ll update when it finally clears. i call the VA 1800 number periodically, they say the same thing every time. (looks like your just waiting on one final signature) 

Anyone else going through this BS?

    Tips on posting on the forums.

    1. Post a clear title like ‘Need help preparing PTSD claim’ or “VA med center won’t schedule my surgery” instead of ‘I have a question.
       
    2. Knowledgeable people who don’t have time to read all posts may skip yours if your need isn’t clear in the title.
      I don’t read all posts every login and will gravitate towards those I have more info on.
       
    3. Use paragraphs instead of one massive, rambling introduction or story.
       
      Again – You want to make it easy for others to help. If your question is buried in a monster paragraph, there are fewer who will investigate to dig it out.
     
    Leading too:

    exclamation-point.pngPost straightforward questions and then post background information.
     
    Examples:
     
    • Question A. I was previously denied for apnea – Should I refile a claim?
      • Adding Background information in your post will help members understand what information you are looking for so they can assist you in finding it.
    Rephrase the question: I was diagnosed with apnea in service and received a CPAP machine, but the claim was denied in 2008. Should I refile?
     
    • Question B. I may have PTSD- how can I be sure?
      • See how the details below give us a better understanding of what you’re claiming.
    Rephrase the question: I was involved in a traumatic incident on base in 1974 and have had nightmares ever since, but I did not go to mental health while enlisted. How can I get help?
     
    This gives members a starting point to ask clarifying questions like “Can you post the Reasons for Denial of your claim?”

    You’ve just been rated 100% disabled by the Veterans Affairs. After the excitement of finally having the rating you deserve wears off, you start asking questions. One of the first questions that you might ask is this: It’s a legitimate question – rare is the Veteran that finds themselves sitting on the couch eating bon-bons … Continue reading
