Who did you use to help you?
But yeah that sounds about right. Fee is 6x what my new rating is. Yeah pretty expensive compared to other services. But I got a much higher rating than I thought I would. And it’s money I never had before. So to me, I haven’t lost anything.
Congrats
Congratulations! 🎊
Did you have to go back through the physical or just submit documentation?
Did two VA reviews after submitting documents. I guess they forgot to submit the findings on the first review or list them because I had to do the same review a second time. Submitted the claim July 31st and got the update December 7th
I'm still trying to find sincere help for my rating. I need help with someone to help me file.
100% recommend using a VA coaching service that costs money. 99.9% of the time they only charge you IF you get a rating. But since they are making money, they are incentivized to do what they can to help you get the rating you deserved. Mine walked me step by step through the whole process, what documents needed and when, what wording to use or not to use that the VA is looking for etc.
Have you had medical records when you filed?
Will be getting off deployment next month and wondering if I should disclose all issues on PDHA at the demob station or would the records from the MCAS suffice?

Yes^ what this person said. I was young dumb and stupid and barely went to medical. So it’s been hard for me to prove what is and isn’t service connected. But it’s still possible.
I got my increase a few months ago without using a VA compensation service.
It helps having written so many reports for my science and criminology and criminal justice classes, I think. It probably really helped having gone to an outside doctor for the evaluation.
