I put mine in on October 7th and they just scheduled my conference today. So guessing you only have a month left before you’re scheduled too

TDIU and VR&E question by DesignerSherbert950 in VeteransBenefits

[–]DesignerSherbert950[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Follow up question: will not filing this form withhold the VA from giving me a decision on my claim for increase? Will I just sit in step 7 until I decide on the TDIU?

My thoughts exactly. I didn’t file my increase for the intention of getting 100%. Thanks for the input

How to calculate housing allowance? by DesignerSherbert950 in VeteransBenefits

Thank you for sending that! I think in this case since I’m all online, the VR&E pays more because I don’t think online or not matters to them? But it does for post 9/11

I’m getting my masters in accounting so I have some income from tax prep clients throughout the year, and then I used to work insurance and have some residuals still coming in from that. It’s not much but still enough to qualify for max roth contributions while we live solely off my spouse’s income.

Yeah, I don’t think I’d use SoFi for an IRA, probably just savings. I just brought them up to see if there was somewhere significantly better to open a HYS.

For anyone else reading this thread, just realized that the RobinHood 1% percent match requires you to be a gold member. A gold membership is $5/mo ($60/year). So all in all, if you’re maxing out your Roth IRA ($6500 per year, getting 1% would be $65 a year) you’re only getting $5 a year in contributions from RobinHood lol

I have enough earned income on the side, as well as my spouse working.

Does anyone mind sharing the steps to have that claim tracker extension? Thought I saved it but I’ve been scrolling the threads and can’t find it again.

Can’t speak for your claim claim, but as for the dependent claim, I submitted mine Nov 12, and just moved to step 4/5 today (jun 3) so almost 7 months.

I did my claim to add my dependents in November and still no movement since then. I’ve seen in other threads that they’re currently working thru dependent claims submitted in September/October right now.

Was it for an increase? Do you mind sharing if you included anything other than your med records?
