(Patience thin at this point)Jun13 (where it gets interesting) Thanks to this informative forum I found out that my case was probably at RI Providence and I received a number also from forum Thanks Guys! Called RI and spoke to a gentleman who looks up my claim and tells me CLARIFICATION was needed for my Knee and that’s all that is needed. This is news because the MSC just told me nothing was needed. So, I got off the phone with him and went to my Peblos office to let him know. He made a call to someone at the Hampton VA center and asked if there was something in the system because they literally just checked. The women he spoke to says no at first but then retracted and said yes one just came in today June 13 for knee. Coincidence maybe probably not due to the fact I just called RI less than an hour ago. So, my peblo just laughs sarcastically and says ok, he than call the VA doctor directly and ask her look for the clarification which see does and completes what is need and sends it back. (found out later she sent it back same day)Jun 21 (Gets Better folks) VA rep/guessing rater called me to get clarification on 3 more conditions. She also goes on to tell me she was sorry someone went left with my claim because it needed clarification and has been on her desk since April 11. (wow really) Anyway she asked he questions and apologized again and told me she would have my claim finished that day. Benefits changes to pending decision approval ( BUT I’ll believe it when I see closed on VA.gov)Jun 24 ( DAY 90) Claim closed Va.gov another claim opened with original claim date. Called Peblo and he confirmed it was back at the PEB. (River Danced in my car Finally away from VA)

Continue with all of your mh care now that you are retired. You want to be transferred to pdrl with the same %. You are already maxed out pay wise (75%) but if you neglect your care it could be decreased.

Armygirl99 thanks for the advise. I will definitely continue the MH care as I think I need to and it would be great to maintain that percentage if possible.

That's awesome man congrats good luck on your next chapter
updating everyone if interested. Here to help if anyone has questions.
TDRL retirement was August 2019. Through the IDES process
DOD 80%
VA 100% not p/t due to PTSD
while I was waiting on ratings and IDES decision I filled a separate claim through my VSO for many more claims that were not considered for the MEB. After the retirement QTC contacted me to get all of my C&P exams done which was quite a process in my area and I had some big issues with them. I had an all morning appointment schedule a few weeks out to address all my claims. An hour prior to my appointment QTC called me and said they were canceling the appointment due to me having too manny claims to process in the time given and that they would contact me to reschedule. I was of course not happy with this as it was on a Saturday and called them back on the following Monday. I was quite disappointed with QTC as they then told me I had no showed theses exams and that no one called and canceled the appointment. I about lost my mind then. The VA investigated the situation and decided to change the claim from QTC to VES which was wonderful. I had my exams in this past December and January. All my claims then closed in the next month and I am now 100% permanent and total even without my IDES claims. So I am very happy with the results and the VA healthcare I have been getting. I have had Mental health Hospitalizations and actually just had back surgery. I recommend the VA.
the only thing I am waiting on now is the TDRL to go to PDRL.
mid anyone has questions I may be able to help.
