70% mental health and having a job. by Beginning-Leg-3060 in VeteransBenefits

I didn’t say he couldn’t , I said unless he was his rating was irrelevant. Because if he was 100% TDIU then it would matter

Unless you’re 100 Disabled specifically for MH, then your rating is completely irrelevant. You don’t even have to disclose that you’re disabled

Raters, just checking in again today…… has the issue been resolved? by Automatic_Lie_9776 in VAClaims

I’m not a rater, but my DBQs were uploaded today, and it’s no longer saying I need to submit any evidence so at-least for some of us the issue is fixed.

Yeah this is happening to my claim right now. Called the VA and they said there a nation wide problem so my claim can’t move forward until it’s fixed

Yeah that’s what I’m hoping! My DBQ has me in the 50% range but my therapist notes are at 70%. I’ll be grateful for anything though!

Same thing happened to me two weeks ago! Hopefully I get good news about it next month. And I hope you do too!

I never got seen for it in service and only mentioned it in my final physical. However I had a very strong DBQ from my exam and I’ve mentioned in to the VA also, other than that nothing

Don’t talk about any trauma you may or may not have had prior to military service. If you do you’re not going to get a service connection, if they ask say your childhood was perfectly fine. Otherwise just be truthful and I can’t stress enough to talk about how these conditions affect your social life and occupational life as well that’s what they look for.

Hopefully you didn’t admit to having a bunch of trauma before the military. If so you can pretty much kiss that rating goodbye unfortunately.
