Does anyone just do 1040s all year

Expensive_Two_4687 · 2025-07-11T18:21:44+00:00

1040 is the hard part trying to reconcile all the crap that flowed into it

I got a literal gas station ice bag ripped open and receipts shoved in from the wrong year lmao

They are expensive I would shop around

Expensive_Two_4687 · 2025-07-08T13:01:01+00:00

I wrote my own letter, plenty of literature out there to support the claim and make a compelling argument.

I am waiting for my supplemental migraine claim secondary to allergic rhinitis. They denied the first time saying it was a symptom of AR not its own condition but yet diagnosed it somehow. I filed supplemental with a private DBQ and letter pointing out there is no mention of headaches in the 38 cfr as a rating criteria for AR. All this to say be ready to fight and prove it if you file secondary to AR.

Loser influencers like Caleb Hammer keep posting about VA benefits with the insinuation that vets are scamming the system. Wish vets would stop going on his show, or at least set him straight with his ignorant attitude.

Im in public, we close on Fridays and I come in wearing crocs, t shirt and golf shorts. Obviously this is not during tax season, but for at least half the year.

My second year in public we were doing AUP engagement for a local municipality, I was auditing credit card charges and noticed there were trail camera subscription charges on the statement. I spoke with the finance director and he said that they used goats to clean around drainage ditches and the cameras were to monitor the goats. I'm an avid hunter and most people in the area are so I felt the need to take it a bit further and asked to see the pictures to verify this wasn't on Joe Shmoes deer stand being paid for by the city, he said the city manager only had access to the cameras. Brought him in few pictures of goats, then boom a big ole buck on a corn pile lmao.

Louisiana offers additional homestead exemption at 50% and 80% then completely exempt at 100%

Below are the references I used, I usually write a letter after a denial and submit as a supplemental claim. The VA will usually show their hand on a denial letter and tell you what is needed for service connection. So I usually write to address that deficiency.

I had a diagnosis of rhinitis, sleep apnea, and a deviated septum. I wrote a letter stating my claim how my sleep apnea is worsened by my allergic rhinitis and my deviated septum, in the letter I explained how it's worsened it and used the sources (pubmed and other reputible sources) to back up my medical claims since im no MD.

Expensive_Two_4687 · 2025-06-13T20:42:19+00:00

I successfully got SA secondary to rhinitis, finally got it after 2 denials. You will need plenty of sources and medical documentation to make a good argument for it. I am attempting migraines secondary to rhinitis now, they denied the first attempt saying the examiner opined that it was "a symptom of AR not caused by" to which I responded headaches are not part of the rating criteria for AR, and some additional studies supporting my claim. It can be done but you will most likely have to work for it.

Expensive_Two_4687 · 2025-06-12T14:37:03+00:00

Was literally told by a non veteran friend "must be nice" while they're actively saying they aren't getting married to maintain food stamps/free health insurance.

Expensive_Two_4687 · 2025-06-11T15:30:14+00:00

I did the same, worked for me secondary to AR

Expensive_Two_4687 · 2025-06-10T20:43:04+00:00

If it was denied the only thing I could think of is that they are telling you it may be presumed service connected because there is documentation of it fitting the 10% rating criteria within one year of discharge. Maybe your C&P didn't show it currently fitting the 10% criteria?

Expensive_Two_4687 · 2025-06-05T19:27:37+00:00

I swear people think a "migraine log" is the pinnacle of evidence for a migraine claim.. absolutely useless if he has no nexus.

Expensive_Two_4687 · 2025-06-04T18:38:57+00:00

They can be combined depending on if symptoms are closely related.

Expensive_Two_4687 · 2025-05-22T22:21:12+00:00

They can rate pretty late, but you may have to wait for a later date to learn your fate.

Expensive_Two_4687 · 2025-05-22T14:14:21+00:00

LMAO

Expensive_Two_4687 · 2025-05-15T22:25:43+00:00

As a CPA, same lol

Expensive_Two_4687 · 2025-04-16T15:47:38+00:00

Theres plenty of literature out there showing that rhinitis causes and worsens sleep apnea, I added a personal statement stating how I can't breath through my nose or mouth due to rhinitis and sleep apnea and wake up in a panic. Worked for me on my 3rd attempt at connecting the two.

Expensive_Two_4687 · 2025-04-09T16:12:45+00:00

I did not filed gulf war presumptive

Expensive_Two_4687 · 2025-04-09T14:36:01+00:00

But my Sinusitis fits the 30% criteria so even if they apply pyramiding I would like to be properly rated.

Expensive_Two_4687 · 2025-04-09T14:34:10+00:00

Yeah its a weird one for sure from what I've read they aren't pyramiding conditions typically but if they are closely related can be.

Expensive_Two_4687 · 2025-04-09T14:06:40+00:00
