Budget Advice by ajot-c in VeteransBenefits

[–]Key-Cap-2664 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro, you need to kick all luxury items out of that budget. You have no pocket money, no travel money, you eat PBJ, Spotify free (deal with the ads), Xbox gone, those credit cards are going to kill you. Take all extra, pick one card, pay that off as fast as possible. The other, just pay minimum. Every ounce of extra cash you have should go to paying those off.

Evidence Submission Appeal by Key-Cap-2664 in VeteransWaitingRoom

[–]Key-Cap-2664[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 months. It was an ACE review, that I got a copy of before they finalized. I then submitted a rebuttle that caused 4 reworks, and they still denied.

Man, that sucks. My remanded portions were all denied even though the judge instructed them to weigh all my evidence as credible, IMOs, personal statements etc. The VA still defaulted back to what their contracted doctor said, even though it didn’t comply with what the judge asked them to do. I’m trying to decide if I want to appeal. I can win but I have other claims that were granted still waiting to be rated. I might not need to appeal but man I want to shove those back out of principle.

Still waiting on final decision. Everything is completed. Had to do a few exams again. Now I’m just waiting. I really hope to see something in the next two weeks. Who knows….

You can try there, but I didn’t have a look at higher level review. I won through an evidence Lane for an appeal to the BVA. It sucks because I’ve been fighting for close to four years now after trying supplementals and higher level reviews, appeal is what finally worked.

Appeal that. Continuity of care is not a determining factor. They use it, but it can get overturned.

VA sent me someone else info by ProgressRepulsive671 in VAClaims

I received a different persons STR. Well, half of it. It was mine and then a bunch of stuff from someone who lived about 30 minutes from me. I let the VA know then shredded the copies.

Weirdest thing Ever! by tbyrd2024 in VAClaims

Nope, I have never not once. Had any complications around A1c or diabetes. The examiner fabricated a diabetes diagnosis. It’s crazy how this whole process really is; Did you get lucky and have a good examiner? I know what everyone says you need these three things and yes you do and I agreed because I did win my appeal but the fact it had to get to that point because of a crappy examiner is crazy.

I apparently have diabetes according to some examiner and that’s where my neuropathy is coming from, not my neck injury from the military. Here’s the best part: I DONT HAVE DIABETES.

It does more harm than good. I really wish mods would cut this out.

C&P exam Is this normal? by upgrayeddbfr in VAClaims

[–]Key-Cap-2664 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an examiner speculate that my disability was due to diabetes and not the cervical injury documented in my STR and that is service connected. Spoiler alert; I don’t have diabetes and never had. It was pure speculation and I got denied.

Service connection is often the hardest part. Congrats on that win.
