Just a little update. It’s been a little over two weeks and I received my updated dd215 and all the info that I apparently need to move forward. All in all this took about a 15-16 months. Not to bad imo. I guess I need to find a RSO to continue on.

I emailed them mid September 2017 and was advised that I was in the final processing and administrative review. It went by fairly quickly.

The letter said there is a lot of claims at the moment but my decision was sent to records so it can be updated. Could still take another couple months before they are updated to reflect the change

If you don't mind me asking. Do you receive retirement pay as well as your veterans benefits? Or does the va cancel out the retirement?

So with my current va rating I get free health and dental from the va. I'm afraid if I do apply and get a higher rating that I will somehow end up owing money because I have been getting full benefits since 2004. I keep seeing people say that they have gotten pay cuts because of the retirement pay.

Hi. I recently recieved a certified letter from the pdbr. I have never heard of it until then. I was dishcharged back in 04 with a 10% rating for many mental health issues. They have me a check for a few thousand and a pat on the back and said see ya later. A couple months after discharge...
