They’re gathering your medical records. I submitted in July and received a decision last week. Be patient, you’ll get the backpay. Easier said than done. My original claims were from September 22 and February 23.

Mine took 7 months. They are very backed up and short staffed. Was worth it in the end, good luck!

They’re backed up because august was a key deadline for pact act claims. I started mine June 7th and got it back feb 2nd. You’ll get all the back pay

That makes sense, but I’m still salty because I pay too much in taxes for things to be this slow :(

I wanted almost 30 months back in the day for an injury incurred in the line of duty with a fully developed claim & surgeries done by military docs

Simple question. Why do Doctors earn so much in a country where access to health services is so difficult ? I don’t mind if they are becoming billionaires. I would just rather have more Doctors paid less. Access is a real issue. If the argument is around better opportunities in the US, this applies to many people, including us.
