I just got off the phone with a social worker and he suggested that I go back to the DAV and ask them to try for 100% schedular. I'm currently at 70%, considered permanent and total, and get paid at 100% level TDIU, since about 2010. They break it down like this:
Major Depressive Disorder - 70% SC
So I'm wondering if I should go to the DAV again and ask for 100% or should I leave well enough alone? I certainly don't want to lose benefits. I also have sleep apnea, proven by a sleep study the VA arranged and the social worker said that was an automatic 50% but I seem to think that the sleep apnea wouldn't factor in, since it isn't service connected. Thanks for reading-

If you do not mind, can you list all your service-connected disabilities and their current rating percentages? This will help us help you a little better. It is possible that the social worker knows o

As Bronco stated, it is not likely that since your current benefits have been static for well over a decade the VA cannot reduce your current ratings. The most they could try to do is propose a reduct
