I just got my Va rating back (only took 9 months to complete) as was baffled that the Va rated my MDD @ 30% when the AF rated it @ 10%. I only presented the VA with my medical records and did a short interview.
I'm wondering why the difference in ratings, since the VA and military use the same disability rating system... Is this difference in ratings justification enough to apply for a PDBR? Also, is the PDBR only reviewing cases from 11 Sep 01 - 31 Dec 09. I was medically discharged Sep 2010 and it appears I can only go the BCMR route. Any help would be appreciated.
