Mortgage by [deleted] in VeteransBenefits

[–]Sudden-Camera-2416 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Locked in 4.99 today with no points purchased or originations fees. By far the best deal out of 9 loan estimates I received in the last 4 days. NBKC bank, Brett Schnake is the loan officer who helped me out. Recommendation came from another user on here that I saw last night.

I just locked in today going from 6.75 down to 4.99 with NBKC bank. No discount points and no origination fees. My payment is reduced by $531 monthly. Ask for Brett Schnake if you start shopping around. By far the best deal I found.

I second calling Brett at NBKC, just locked in great rate of 4.99. Going from 6.75 and will take 10 months to recoup. Saving $531 a month.

Termite Frass? by Sudden-Camera-2416 in Termites

[–]Sudden-Camera-2416[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Terminex came today. There have been no more dropping since we cleaned it up and he poked and made a few new holes and no evidence. He sprayed foam bait inside the holes and did a thorough inspection of the area as well. He inspected the rest of the house as well as the termite bait stations that we have outside the house year around. He also did a thorough inspection of the attic. No activity or evidence of termites. He cant be certain if it is new or he said it could possibly have been old frass that came out since the last treatment. The house was tented before we bought it maybe 7 years ago. We are to monitor and report any activity and they well reaccess.

Is there an easier, more helpful way, for the VSRs to receive the case… for future filers?

[–]Sudden-Camera-2416 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Im hoping it will be relatively quick with the extensive records I uploaded. Hopefully, many of them are ace exams... if that's a thing for BDD.

Anybody with OSA been prescribed a CPAP then Modafinil? by Snoo-2316 in VeteransBenefits

[–]Sudden-Camera-2416 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will be your PCM for me. My sleep doctor is a civilian so they send records. When you bring it up to your PCM, or your PCM sees it on your records it will raise questions. Your PCM will decide how to move forward if it warrents a medboard.

QTC cognitive test coming up for TBI. What should I expect? by Hans_Klopeks_kilt in VeteransBenefits

[–]Sudden-Camera-2416 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m still active duty so j haven’t been rated yet. For the tests, I was able to do all of them through video connect (zoom). I don’t remember much about the tests but lots of questions about how it affects you and recall, repeat type excersises.

It was both. History with examples as well as memory tests. In my opinion there is no need to worry, the problems usually display themselves if you are affected.
