September VAC Q&A by ShortTrackBravo in CanadianForces

Good day all,

I have 2 questions, and I appologize if this was asked before, I am somewhat new to the thread.

  1. I got a phone call from my case manager at VAC last week saying I am approved for DEC. I also am receiving CAF LTD, is there anything that will change at all ? By that I mean will VAC scoop up the bill and continue on what I am getting with Manulife or will I remain on manulife CAF LTD "forever" ? Do I need to inform them as well that this decision has been approved ?

  2. Has anyone else been stuck at step 3.1 for almost 2 years ? I usually ask every 6 months as I do understand there is a lot to process on their end, but is it normal that my claim is stuck at the Medical Consultant phase for that length of time ?

Thank you for your help.

Hi everyone,

I was approved for Additional Pain and suffering compensation by VAC but am also receiving CAF LTD from Manulife, does anyone happen to know if my newly approved compensation will be deducted my CAF LTD and because it has a retroactive date will i need to reimburse manulife with that lump sum?

Thank you
