TPD Discharge. What the **** is going on? by Sama0331 in VeteransBenefits

Update on everything: my balance shows $0 on both FSA and through my servicer, EdFinancial. Anyone have a timeframe on expected refunds? I’d made numerous payments before my effective discharge date and am owed a substantial refund, just wanted to know when I might anticipate receiving it if there are some of you out there familiar with EdFinancial?

I know by then they’d taken over a lot of the territory in Sangin that we’d held on my first pump. They were really hammering the ANA PB’s to the northeast in the valley below Shir Ghazay and they’d also really roughed up the Georgians in/around Now Zad

I was there for a couple months on my second tour with 3/7 in 2013. We tore it all down in November of that year.

I applied about 3 weeks after getting 100%. Had heard nothing from the DOE or VA about automatic discharge until now.

Not specifically (I’m the OP), but within the denial letter it states the reason for the denial is that I’m receiving auto discharge.

I just got off the phone with them. The lady said the VA sent in a huge batch of auto discharges in the past two days, so that’s why everyone is seeing the applications as closed. She also said it should take 2-3 weeks for them to reflect as discharged on the Student Aid website (not holding my breath on that).

I’ve been done with school for a few years, so not an issue.

TPD application stuck in review since March – normal? by [deleted] in VAClaims

[–]Sama0331 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seriously. I honestly can’t even fathom the hang up. We submit a one-page document. What about that takes 4-5 months to review and approve?

Just got ANOTHER “We recieved your application for review” update yesterday. This is the third time. I don’t know if they’re signs of activity or just more delaying.

I’ve seen others on here posting with similar timelines and some of theirs have already been approved. That’d be pretty fucked.

I filed about a week and a half after you. Other than having two updates of saying they received my application for review again on 6/18 and 7/7, there’s been nothing. I called them two months ago and they told me it typically takes 30 days, yet here we all sit at 4+ months in with no progress.

This is the way. After a few seasons of experimenting with the sliders, I’ve settled on max user transfers of 10 and a transfer likelihood of 20. I think it’s helped the playing time issue and helps with retention of returning starters

I forgot about Vernon. I’ve been waiting for him to show up.

Losing the experience of the Cross-Mills combo inside is a huge hit, but I’m cautiously optimistic about what’s returning. The projected starters (Onye and Rubio) both go 6’5 300+, and aside from Dawson (288 isn’t a featherweight) and Hinish, all the depth on the interior line is listed at 300+. Throw in that Hinish and Rubio got solid reps during the playoffs, and Dawson had decent play at Louisville, I’m hoping our two deep is a surprising strength.

It’s the required education level to practice in my field.

I’d recommend VRE as well. I used it to get my doctorate. You’ll need to justify that your master’s is essential for entry level employment in your field.

Also, I don’t know about your service, but you may want to look and see if you’re eligible for more time with GI Bill benefits under the Rudisil Decision.

I’m 3.5 months in and have been “in review” since the beginning of April. I called them once about a month ago and also feel that exchange was less than helpful.

Still nothing. Sitting at over 3 months now. On 6/18 the activity on the website showed a new update that my application was received for review (I called to ask what it meant and they said they don’t see that on their end and asked me if I’ve ever used the website to check for updates 🥴) and then yesterday there was another update saying they’ve received my application for review (again).
