    Proposed va rating change?

    Hey! So I got my proposed ratings and signed for them. I’m still being seen for things that I claimed. My mri showed my wrists were normal for carpal tunnel. I have it in both hands. Will that affect my rating once it’s official? I appreciate any insight.

    How does paying back the severance pay work?

    I'm Active Duty USMC and am on a Med Board. If you end up being offered severance pay and not medical retirement (because of a DOD rating less than 30%), do you have to pay it all back before you can collect ANY VA Disability compensation? I was under the assumption you couldn't even collect a...
