I'm new to this and been reading over this forums for a while now. My question is with SSDI will my ratings and unfit memo be helpful with my appeal since i was denied 1st time go. Second question if I submit the form to be IU will i need any addition documents. My Med Board process I think was pretty fast I didn't appeal anything and felt it was time for me to go. I also received the CRSC Packet but dont know when to submit the packet and how long the process would take if I'am approved. Also, with the 90 percent would that help me to get approved for IU and being almost a veteran soon does having 90 percent va rating help getting other benefits, I do understand the tax exempt on certain things and also it does depend on the state I will live in. It does feel nice not having to pay out of pocket to go somewhere else other than home of record.
