Thank you for this outstanding resource for our Veterans & their families. My husband's a Vietnam veteran with 100% permenate disabled. He was on a tracker team with his canine "Nickademus".He was exposed to Agent Orange & in country for 18 months. He had 2 episode's of lung collapse's in 1984, and was working at the time as a Foreman for a Hunting Ranch in Texas. He lost his job from that & we had a new baby at the same time. If you think you could help us in Any way we would appreciate your input. Thanks🙏👍🇺🇸

I am 100per cent disabled with ischemic heart disease, now have been diagnosed with peripheral neurothry.

[@tommarinevet]

you guys are great as always

[@kabbey30]

I am currently 90% Service Connected. In my original claim for issues through my AM Legion VSO (2013), I had listed 2 active duty incidents where I had 3 TIA strokes, total and after my 3rd TIA (2nd TIA that night) I was told the doctor had found a PFO that eventually was determined to have caused blood clots to go to my brain. What I got was a 'Not service connected' determination. My thinking is that the govt allowed me to join the military after an induction physical and when I had multiple TIA's while on active duty wouldn't that be considered 'aggravation of an existing medical condition'? I have had a TIA since the operation and I have all documentation and would love to pursue it if you folks would like to discuss it?

[@donbouvet1579]

I've had ACL reconstruction, 3 foot surgeries,left shoulder surgery,and only got 60% I also have sleep apnea done at a VA hospital but got turned down,and recently diagnosed with severe asthma

[@scatteredtreasures3640]

I deal with PTSD and have a 90% rating. I have issues finding and keeping employment. Is there someone I can hire to assist w/ a TDIU application?

[@ralphwade5105]

I have been at Camp Lejune. in 2010 i sent in a letter about Camp Lejune about the ground was sort & 55 gallon druns with no label & no one told us we needed gloves. The radio plus wire shaft was small. We had to go out side to air. After that A super fund came out.

[@roygutierrez8428]

If your disability ratings 100%i Including unemployability from a 80%rating but you are not 100% disabled is this a temporary?

[@blackheartsmarine0351]

I’m 100%IU P&T. I also heard IU with P&T is uncommon but does happen from time to time. I was told if I make the minimum I could make at the poverty level that the VA would see I was working and take my rating away. It’s a rock and a hard place. Can they do that? I believe the poverty level is around 14k a year. I’m also receiving social security which also follows that same poverty level. I’m so scared to even try working a day or two just to keep me busy because if I lose my benefits my family will suffer. Any advice? I’d rather be 100% P&T but scared to even go back to the VA for anything ratings wise. I don’t trust them. They also rated my TBI under PTSD. I don’t get it.

[@chino2037]

Once you are 100% P&T with IU you can’t work. With the 100 P&T Scheduler rating you can work. But here’s the thing to remember. Once the VA determines that you are 100%P&T you are said to have total social and occupational impairment. If you do decide to work the VA may use that fact as evidence that your condition has improved and could decide to reduce you. Hope this helps answer your question. Check out a guy named Combat Craig on KZbin. He knows a lot about the VA claims process and procedures. And yes, your TBI should have been rated separately, and having TBI would qualify you for special monthly compensation. Talk to a VSO but remember: Anytime you file a claim it opens the VA up to possibly reduce you.

[@CBL138]

Is age a factor that’s considered when filing for TDIU?

[@CCK_Law]

@G138, Nno, VA is not allowed to consider age when making decisions on claims for TDIU benefits.

[@tbs2279]

Great videos. Very informative. Just to be clear, I'm at 90% w/IU and P&T, understanding rental income is considered passive income, does that still apply when the income is way over the poverty line and it is being manage by a managing team? Thinking about moving to a smaller place and renting my larger home.

[@federal6616]

Does 100% Permanent and Total Scheduler awards prevent one from working typically?

[@CCK_Law]

@Federal6, There are no restrictions on a veteran’s ability to work with a 100 percent schedular rating.

[@jerrychristensen9219]

If your 100 % secular I you get reevaluated every 5 yrs is this true ?

[@CCK_Law]

VA usually reevaluates veterans’ service-connected disabilities on two occasions: 1. Six months after leaving military service; and 2. Between two and five years from the date of the decision to grant VA disability benefits. You can read more here: cck-law.com/blog/how-often-va-reevaluate-disability-ratings

[@fryfamily1993]

I received a 100% P&T rating, and am considering filing a secondary claim for ED (secondary to anxiety disorder, which was service connected). Would I be at risk of rating reduction if the medical file diagnosing my ED also indicated improvement of my anxiety disorder? Thank you.

[@CCK_Law]

@MichaelFry, You may be subject to a rating reduction generally VA can order a re-examination at any time if there is new, relevant medical evidence that your disability has improved.

@@CCK_Law NOT if the Vet is 100% or 90% P&T and unemployable. Look it up it's true.

[@anthonygrant2902]

Good morning, I need your help in filing I was at 10% from 1983 to 2020 It had to come down to the pandemic and me becoming homeless to find out I could file for my disabilities I file back in 1983 and again in 2014 to be turned down so I just gave up until March of 2020 and even then I had a rep. that told me to fill out a form for my disabilities so I did 2 months later I called to ask what was going on she told me that I filled so many claims it was not submitted this made me very upset so I went online and filed myself for my left and the right knee to be told again I was at 0% connected but was awarded 30% for residuals, laceration forehead that I filed for in 1983 now they say I need my left knee replaced but at this time I can't because of my back problems and other issues I have due to my left knee over the years. To other Vets. Those who are reading this don't give up keep pushing until you get what is deserved. God bless you all and thank you for your service.

[@robertkidd6119]

I have been retired for 27 years and am rated 60% disability. I went to the va a couple years ago and found out i have prostate cancer. Can i apply for temporary rating on this?

[@johnboyd7158]

I was rated 100 %, P&T, in 2002. For PTSD alone. Is it possible to apply for and receive, anything else?

[@israel9070]

[@LawDogg01]

If you are 100% scheduler do you get more money for TDIU? If not what’s the point to pursue it. Now you lose income. Poverty level is way to low.

[@mikereyes5354]

if you are already 100% p&t and you had another additional service connected disability that is 100% is there an additional pay on your 100% disability? for example im getting $3500 for 100% now im getting $3900 because i had another disability on its own that is 100%. where do thety get this computations?

[@michaellennick6177]

I'm service connected ischemic heart disease but how far can i get back pay as my service time was 71/72 when exposed to a.o.

[@CCK_Law]

The amount of back pay a veteran will receive depends on the effective date of their claim, and the disability rating they are granted from the VA. As discussed, a veteran’s effective date is the date of their claim for benefits, or the date entitlement arose

[@CandC68]

Very informative video. I will probably be contacting you soon. Thanks-

[@allanmorga3407]

What’s the best 100% rating ? Scheduler or IU. Advantages of one over the rating.

[@chino2037]

Scheduler is harder to get and you can work. With IU you can’t work. If you get the P&T designation (Permanent and Total), then you qualify for additional benefits.

[@jeffschmidt934]

90%IU and permanent total. 20 years my wife is in a nursing home is there anything else I can use to help her? She has champ Va and we in the process of Medicare to Medicaid.

I wish they'd answer that question Jeff but I guess that's where your $$ comes in to the picture.

I am a 57 year old Desert Storm vet with a 40% rating for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and 50% for mood disorder with depression and anxiety. I drank over my issues for 22 before going to the va for help after receiving a felony 3rd dui. With a 70% combined rating I am contemplating filing for tdiu. I have been unemployed for 2 years. My career was outside sales and which enabled me to work from my home since no one was looking over my shoulders. Between the 2 disabilities I can no longer keep full time employment. Can not do physical work due to cfs and my mental disabilities enables me from performing a full time job. What’s my chances?

[@Raine747]

Barry Bedells hi are u still there? Did u file for tdiu yet? I'm asking because I just got approved and would like to offer some insight and/or hear how your claim is going?

[@barryb9782]

lo ca Have not field yet but YES, I’m definitely looking for any advice you can offer. Congratulations on getting the benefits you deserve.

[@Raine747]

Barry Bedells Thank you Barry...with what you explained here, it sounds like you're in a really good position for tdiu...when were u awarded that 70% and do u go to the va regularly for your SC disabilities?

[@Raine747]

Barry Bedells also call the VA hotline [phone] first thing Monday and follow the prompts to file a claim and tell the va rep on the phone that you want to file an intent to file - this protects your award back pay date and it's valid for a year as long as you put the claim in prior to that year expiration

[@barryb9782]

lo ca I went to 70% a little over 2 years ago when my mental health rate went to 50%. And yes, I go every 2 weeks to see a mental health social worker. He is really great. I go see my mental health Doc every 4-6 weeks. As far as the cfs, I have been to the pain doctor twice and he set me up with a tens unit, high doses of Tylenol and voltarian gel. After 2 visits he said he does not need to see me anymore unless things take a huge turn for the worse. I see my general physician every 6 months for updates.

[@sherylconcepcion9307]

When a Vietnam veteran already receives 80% rate my husband has had tremors since back in 2007 & now he went to his regular Dr & found out that he has Parkinson’s filed a claim @ the local VA office, now why does the VA want him to see a Va Dr, which Parkinson’s is on the list of issues caused by Agent orange.

And of course, as in my case, 90% with P&T with unemployable. Same everything as 100% and NO evaluation for reduction.

[@johnnygross4415]

I've got 70% due to agent orange. Will this make a claim easier to win?
