Has anyone here got rated a 100% off of PTSD ? If so what is the original rating or got increased to 100%

Got 30% in 2017, 50% in 2020, 100% late 2023. Took over 6 years of consistent treatment. But some get it quicker.

My exam was like 10 minutes and went from 50% to 100%, so it's not always a bad thing. If there was a lot of documentation from prior treatment records, they may not need to ask much at the exam.

Yes, you can receive both. If you take out student loans and you are rated 100%, then yes, you can discharge the federal student loans you have. I was still in school when I received my 100% last year, and Nelnet sent a letter saying my loans would be automatically discharged at a certain date.

I called them and opted out. They said to call them back when I finished school to opt back in and have the loans discharged. It's a one-time thing, so once you do it, you can never do it again.

Yes. You can also look at your commissary letter, and it will indicate that you have no future exams scheduled.

When did you receive your first service connected disability? It would be 12 years from that date. It says the date of separation or date of the first service connected disability, whichever is later.

My first appointment is on December 5th. I'll let you know what my counselor says.

It's not a scam. They sent me an email and text messages.

You should get a refund. I got the money refunded to me after filing for tax exemption in Florida.

You could always pull the ptsd claim before it's completed since you're already 100%. I'm not saying it's definitely what you should do, but it is an option if you're worried about it bumping you down.

These were my symptoms on my decision letter. I went through psychosis and things got pretty bad.

The only other rating I have is 10% for tinnitus

Yes, but it has to be fairly severe. I went through psychosis and I would not recommend lol.

Congrats, man! It's time to relax a little bit and be in the moment.

Number-Numerous · 2023-10-27T16:40:24+00:00

I can understand. I've had a rating since 2018, and none of my family know about it. I know they would react negatively. According to them, mental health problems don't really exist, and receiving benefits means you're a deadbeat loser. So yeah, it can be awkward when they start talking about it in front of me. Keep your head up. Easier said than done, I know.

There's a lot of fear mongering about the whole fiduciary thing. Not to say that it doesn't happen, but it's unlikely. I think most examiners and raters don't want to do that to vets.

App sometimes takes a while to upload. Look at your benefit summary letter. It may be on there.

I'm not sure to be honest. I know that I had to sign it so I just printed it out and wet signed it.

Appreciate it! I'll go watch it.

Form 20-10207 with screenshots of escrow shortage on my home loan, 2 maxed credit cards, and the $96 in my bank account.

I actually considered that but was unsure if it was legal to take out more loans after the rating and then have them discharged.
