Thank you for simplifying this subject for us. Thank you for caring about our veterans.
What a kind comment. Thank you!
Great video, very helpful!
Glad you think so!
Get a copy of your VA code sheet. It will tell you if your ratings are static and will also list your future exam if any
Yessir!
👍💯
If you're 100% P&T since all conditions are static...do you still have to see a va provider routinely. Meaning if you don't go to the VA for treatment for 5 yrs wiill the VA think your 100 P&T condition improved?
Once you get the P&T, your evaluation is protected. With this in mind, no, you shouldn’t need to see your provider for anything other than medical purposes once you are rated P&T.
Hope that helps!
Does 55 year rule fit in with static ,? I hope I'm saying this right? Thank you
Yes, they can go hand and hand. Because a veteran is over the age of 55 years, their disability may be deemed static. For example, a 28 year old veteran with a 30% award for sinusitis may have a future exam scheduled because the VA believes there’s a likelihood of improvement. However, if the veteran were over the age of 55 the VA would be likely to call the condition static and not schedule a future exam. Hope that makes sense.
Now if the veteran’s conditions total 100% (using VA math) and those conditions do not have a future exam scheduled, the veteran would be “permanent and total.”
The “permanent” happens when the conditions used to reach 100% are all static.
The “total” happens when the conditions total 100% using VA math.
I hope that clarifies it for you. Thanks for the question.
@@VADisabilityGroup yes and thank you my Brother

Is there any way to find out which law firm rank number one when is relate to Camp Lejeune class action lawsuits due to contamination waters???
Thank you.
Veterans get an even break at the Salt Lake VA Hospital. They actually know the regs.
That’s encouraging to hear. Thanks for sharing.
I’ve got a denial 3 times!! My husband is deceased but the VA continues to send appeal notices. I need an attorney.
Contact our office. We may be able to help, or hopefully we can at least offer some helpful insight.

I am sorry so in conclusion once is assigned static can the VA still reduce it? Or is it not common for this to happen. Thanks
If you are static, you should not be reduced by the VA absent fraud or a clear and unmistakable error. You should be protected.
How do I get a VA code sheet?
You can call The Veterans Benefits Administration (VA) National Call Center ( just GOOGLE that to get the number and hours of operation) and once you are speaking with a representaive request it - VA Ratings Code Sheet. You can request that they email it to you, otherwise the default is to mail it to you. I did this a few months ago, requesting that they email it to me and received my VA ratings code sheet back by email within an hour.
Also if the VA doesn't give you 100%P&T with all conditions static, you must contact the RSO and explain why you should be !
Thanks for the comment!
It’s exceedingly rare the VA fails to award P&T when there are no future exams because the P&T award is automated as an additional award by default in the VA’s adjudicative system (VBMS). Matter fact, we have never seen P&T not awarded when there are no future exams and 100% is awarded. This usually automatically happens.
No question you are correct that a veteran should appeal the VA’s failure to award P&T of you are 100% and do not have a future exam.
Thanks for the input!
@@VADisabilityGroup Excellent info your passing! Passing it along to a fellow vet! From your videos and overall info from them, I'm using it as a blueprint to help my friend--I expect very much success in his claims! We'll see what I've learned and if it pays off! I have zero doubt--thanks again
BIG thank you! Content is very informative.
Will there be an updated (outdated) video on 100% State Benefits for IL? Do you plan on covering IL benefits for this year ?
All my disability are static, except my sleep apnea, but stuck with 90 percent and cannot get dental benefits, why?
