    i am blessed to get this surprise monthly compensation on top of 100% rating and I didn't need a lawyer. I got everything the first attempt on my claims... that doesn't happen often I hear so i do NOT take it for granted. Beyond grateful

    So I’ve been 100% C&P for a few years, they owed me back pay for SMCK since 2015, we applied for aid and attendance, so my wife’s stayed home to take care of me since 2015 she was 19 at the time and I just got retired. We have the paperwork and all that and they denied us and approved homebound. They always go for low hanging fruit, always appeal! My VSO said that was crazy and appealed it for me, I hope we get the extra $. Aid and attendance can range from 400$ more than housebound to a few thousand from what I understand but there’s no number anywhere online.

      @Mike Gee Yes. Yes you do. SMC is a benefit given to veterans that require special attention and care due to service connected disabilities. You do not need 100% or 100% P&N to get SMC you obky need to qualify for the proper percentage. And your case because you already have a hundred percent you would qualify for SMC. It all just depends on which SMC you actually qualify for.

      I learned the hard way the folks at VA benefits and compensation are not your friends. I had to fight hard for mine. I was at 30% for years and now at 70% and years of back pay they owed me for their clerical error. You need a DAV or VFW rep. If that fails, then go to that VA Claims insider Brian Reese. But they charge you some $390 for the exam, then it’s filed. If approved, you owe them a percentage of the disability income for their services the first year.

    Hello,
    What do you mean by multiple rating for SMC-L?
    For Instance: I have severe migraines, that do not allow me to drive. I know I qualify for SMC-L for that one.
    I have peripheral neuropathy on both of my hands and it's very hard for me to keep grasp of things like cups and plates and often times drop my food because I loose all feeling in my arms. So I know I qualify for SMC-L for that one.
    I also have Radiculopathy of both legs and they cause severe numbness on both legs making it difficult to walk. So I know that also allows me to qualify for SMC-L.
    So, what do you mean when you say "you can have multiple ratings for SMC-L? I was told by my VSO that you can only have SMC-L for one issue or body part. That there is no stacking.
    Please advise.

I mean I got a TBI so I sort of forget stuff. But I think you need to call a VSO ASAP. Look up COmbat craig, he tends to know people that can help. GOod luck bro and sorry about the tumor. But I think the TBI if its like when you got hurt while you were on duty is what they are talking about.
