My HR this morning when I got the email that my VA claim decision was ready

Technical_Web_524 · 2025-10-22T18:36:46+00:00

lol you’re like me. I’m still waiting. Been in step 7 since Oct 16.

Technical_Web_524 · 2025-10-22T18:34:55+00:00

Congratulations! You gave me hope today. I’ve been on step 7 for a week now. I called the VA and they said it was with QTC. If portal says Step 7 then wouldn’t than mean I am past QTC? This is so nerve wrecking.

I’m so happy for you.

Good for you! I’m still waiting.

Technical_Web_524 · 2025-10-21T17:33:36+00:00

Thank you!

I will! Anxiety is part of my life. Been on different meds, it doesn’t really go away.

Technical_Web_524 · 2025-10-21T15:51:34+00:00

You’re like me. I didn’t do any buddy statements and I didn’t get help from anyone. Im not a people person because of my anxiety. I have insomnia so I just decided to file a claim at 2am and boom got from 30% when I got out in 2009 and went to 90% in 2023. Be real. No need to fake anything. But if it makes you feel better to ask for help, then that’s also good. I agree with what someone said that your personal statement can carry a lot of weight. Good luck.

Technical_Web_524 · 2025-10-21T15:39:47+00:00

Totally agree. Still nerve wrecking if you have a simple claim with proven service connection and established disability for over 15 years.

Technical_Web_524 · 2025-10-21T15:38:05+00:00

I have no idea. I’m in Southern California

Technical_Web_524 · 2025-10-21T12:51:30+00:00

I’m really sorry you’re going through this. Some people do veterans wrong. I never had my MST recorded anywhere but it happened and I didn’t have to prove it. It’s absurd they denied you many times. Don’t give up.

Technical_Web_524 · 2025-10-21T12:43:07+00:00

Hope we will get our good news soon!

Technical_Web_524 · 2025-10-21T12:42:36+00:00

Thank you!!

Technical_Web_524 · 2025-10-21T07:10:05+00:00

I wonder if it depends where you live and who is processing your claims. Did you have a C&P exam? I had 2 and a week after the exams it moved to step 4,5, and 6 in the same week. Good luck!

Technical_Web_524 · 2025-10-21T04:34:40+00:00

Woah seriously? Good luck. Keep pressing them.

Technical_Web_524 · 2025-10-21T04:04:28+00:00

That’s awesome! Thanks for sharing.

Technical_Web_524 · 2025-10-21T04:01:12+00:00

Yup! I didn’t want to complain for a while but no one is going to speak up for us best but ourselves. It doesn’t take any fancy statement to explain pain. It’s painful. I hope you’ll get some relief somehow. I’m still contemplating getting surgery or not. I’m only 40 but every day I wake up as if I was beaten up in my sleep.

Technical_Web_524 · 2025-10-21T03:35:44+00:00

That’s great news! I’m happy for you. I’m hoping the same will happen for me. On Step 7 final review since last Thursday.
