I’m on step three now. Been on step three since March 10th and still haven’t been called for my C&P exams.
:childplease:
It took my coworker 3 months to get his C&P when he filed early November. I’m going back to Okinawa on the 9th of June. Was hoping to have my exams done before I leave. Now, I may not do them until I get back in August.

I know the back pay will be phat but still. I’m hoping for 90% off top. Will work to get to 100 after.
Most VA’s are backlogged especially now

I got appointments like 7 months out. C & P’s should be quicker.. especially if you get seen by doctors outside of the VA. My recent ones were like back to back but like I said, I went through DAV.

Still took forever to get results though

I got a letter from the VA on Monday saying they are sorry about the delay. They are backlogged and are working all claims. I guess at least they are up front.

They will probably call me while I’m out of the country. Hopefully from C&P’s to decision doesn’t take as long.

In theory if you’re 100% disabled by the VA then you qualify for SSDI.
I have researched ssdi for 100% vets. It’s a totally different process. If you are 100% you are not guaranteed at all to get ssdi. They will fast track your claim but the process is separate from the Va.

I took a look to see if I would qualify and for me it would be a no go. Now if you have some real bad disabilities you may have a better chance

Yeahhh…


I started a new VA because I moved last year and C&P was quicker than anywhere else really..

But that was a different administration :francis:


This DOGE and Trump shyt has fukked up a lot of work behind the scenes. The average public doesn’t know really, because it hasn’t hit them yet.

Everything that affects them has been stalled for a little bit, but federal agencies were basically attacked first and they were hit hard (the agencies and people with the power to actually do shyt anyway).

A lot of shyt is just happening out of uncertainty.. so yeah I think they are even more backlogged.

I take a music therapy class at the VA and discuss it a lot with those guys.
