After six years I'm 30% in March 40% in April 70% in May and migraines and depression and IBS are supposed to be finished by the end of this month. Hopefully I'll be 100% by the end of this month. If not then I will need to hire you folks.
I'm in a situation right now where I believe I need to quit my job to save my mental health and well being. I have PTSD and suffering from severe depression and anxiety. I believe my current job (environment, deadlines, job culture) etc is the source of my stress and depression levels. My performance has suffered greatly, I can't concentrate long enough to complete tasks and I believe that I'm probably going to be fired soon, if I don't quit first. Actually, I don't know what to do. I recently disclosed my condition to my employer (HR) and they were very understanding and supportive. However, I know I can not continue to under perform and be absent to attend my weekly VA appointments with my Psychologist.
@Sam Houston, We encourage you to file a claim with VA if you believe that an issue caused by military service is inhibiting your ability to work. Veterans Service Organizations (VSOs), such as our colleagues at the Disabled American Veterans (DAV), assist veterans filing claims for free if you need it. They can be reached at (859) 441-7300. We wish you the best of luck!
Ms. Scott STFU, idiot! The person said that they want to get their mental health in order. Doing so with the VA requires a lot of appointments. If they are service connected with mental health issues, TDIU would help immensely. Your advice is ignorant, and doesn’t help.
Good morning Back in 1996 I was grand 10% for my back , and in March 29 2019 I was awarded 50% for anxiety and depression effective July 27 1996 I have a Nexus letter from my psychiatrist from 1996 saying that I [was not able to work ]due to my condition . Given me a combined rating 60% Did I qualify for TDIU back then. Thank you
Great video!! I’ve learned so much from your channel. My husband is retired and trying to get service connected. Has a Cand P exam coming up. Signed up with the local VSO late august and they have been almost no help so I’ve tried to educate myself in the process. Thank you again! This video opened my eyes about TDIU... I thought one had to be have a service connected claim paying 60-70%.
Can a Vet write his own lay statement and would it have legitimacy too it? I'm 70% for PTSD and tinnitus. I have had well over 200 jobs since being discharged in 1975. Most of them very short-lived due to my issues. I've never been able to develop or maintain any kind of friendship, so not feasible to obtain statements from others. And thank you so much for these sessions.
I have DJD in both knees and can't get 100%. I have a 90% now, I have to have a cane or walker depending on how far I have to walk. I not suppose to lift over10lbs no prolong standing and no prolong sitting. What do I need to do to get 100%. I applied for 100% 2 years ago but was turned down.
@Chad Mitchell, thank you for your suggestion! In the meantime, feel free to check out our blog regarding VA disability benefits and migraine headaches: cck-law.com/news/how-does-va-rate-migraine-headaches/
I was rated 90% in April, they did send me TDIU paperwork, since I last worked in March 2019. I was thinking of filing, but decided not to, due to the anxiety and stress of another C&P exams.
@Joey Alg, this is correct, to apply for TDIU benefits, veterans must fill out and submit VA Form 21-8940: Veteran’s Application for Increased Compensation Based on Unemployability. To learn more about TDIU, please check out our blog: cck-law.com/news/how-to-win-your-TDIU-claim
hello, just wondering what happens when you have a claim in and also have a claim in for TDIU? The original claim moved me to 100% recently but I've been waiting on TDIU in appeal for about 4 years leading up to the recent decision. My TDIU claim is currently awaiting a hearing date.
I live in MD and really need to file an appeal on my compensation. Can you refer me to someone who can represent me in my area? DAV is so overwhelmed they not getting back to me. Thank you in advance for any help you can give me. I feel like I am flying blind.
I’m rated at 90% currently, I’ve lost three jobs since being rated at 90%. The same job twice mind you. I’m at the point of losing a fourth. I’ve been turned down twice for IU. They keep saying I can do “some” work. What should be my next step? Thanks!
My name is Vernon Roberts I'm a disabled veteran in my state of North Carolina they are saying that I have been healed from glaucoma and cataract however I've been to John Hopkins and they're saying that I have lost more eyesight and they are trying to give me surgery to correct it and they're saying that I never was cured so I'm trying to understand why the VA is taking my money and not giving me a hundred percent disability please help me in this matter
Hello, I am currently 90%. for service connected brain and back surgeries. I am unemployed for almost 2 years now. What are the chances of getting tdiu?
I am about to be 58. Have not worked in 2.5 years. I am 50% depressive disorder with anxiety and 40% for CFS. (70%) total. I have a hard time being around people. Can sit for over a couple of hours then have to move around do to hip pain but when it comes to any work that requires creative thinking, reading with comprehension, or working out problems. So basically I cannot do physical labor not can I work in an office environment. Do you think there is a chance I’d qualify for tdiu? Any advice would be awesome.
@BarryBedellas, although we cannot speak on the specifics of your case, generally speaking, if a veteran has one service-connected disability rated at least 60 percent disabling; OR The veteran has more than one service-connected disability, with one condition rated at least 40 percent, and a combined rating of at least 70 percent they may be eligible for TDIU. For more information, our blog may be able to help you. cck-law.com/individual-unemployability-tdiu/
Im 80% disabled currently, 40% for lower back lumbar strain, 50% Anxiety/depression, 10% tenitus and 20% for a rotator cuff strain and have been separated since august 2018, i havent worked since but have been attending college, am i eligible for this IU while attending school?
@Ryan St, you may be eligible for TDIU benefits as long as you are unable to secure and follow substantially gainful employment as a result of your service-connected conditions. To learn more, please visit: cck-law.com/news/tdiu-claims/
Hi, I would like to know on va form 21-8940 on page two question #19(Did you leave you job because of your disability), If so, the go to page 3 #26 to make your remarks. Do you need to make remarks or not?
I'm a federal government employee and have applied for Reasonable Accommodation for my service-connected disability. The VA was not able to provide the necessary accommodations without removing "essential job functions". Is the evidence for a TDIU claim? I'm currently at 64% being evaluated for a VA-initiated claim for depression.
@Barry Switzer, thank you for watching! You can submit evidence that shows you are only able to work because of accommodations from your employer. To read more about protected work environments, please visit: cck-law.com/news/protected-work-environment/
Hi my name is kevin. I have been service connected with a 10, 30, and 50% disability and stopped working because of the my issues but worked long enough too retire with retirement pay will that prevent me from qualifying for TDIU
I have a 40% rating bilateral hearing loss with hearing aids tinnitus and vertigo it his hard to work with the vertigo is there any chance of getting a higher rating
@Greg Smith, thank you for watching! If you are unable to work due to your service-connected bilateral hearing loss, tinnitus, and vertigo, you may still be eligible for TDIU on an extraschedular basis. To learn more, check out our blog: cck-law.com/veterans-law/what-is-extra-schedular-tdiu/
I've been told by other vets that the p&e examiner will ask you the same question 3 or 4 times, just asking it in a different fashion. Have you heard anything like this? If so, isn't that just a form of trickery and deceit on the part of the VA?
Hey 👋🏾 I have a quick question. I’m already rated 90% with tdui. I wanted to know if I file a new claim for migraine an file an increase for my skin condition. I wanted to know if I get denied for my 2 new claim would it affect my tdiu?? I trying to see can I get to 100% p&t
Basically, all I can say is... do the"VA" math! It took me a while to figure it out, but I finally did... but I wrote it down. Even today I have to refer back to my notebook to do it again! Very confusing 😂!
How many chances do I have to get approved if I was jumping from various jobs the last year starting from September to August. And the last 8 months was working part time
Your chances will depend on many different details of your case. Here's one of our videos that may help. It has some more in-depth info about the kinds of evidence you would need to submit to get a TDIU "claim" going: th-cam.com/video/711h-rp4pik/w-d-xo.html
I had an Appointment with Law Judge for my Appeal but my last Shoulder exam was not there., now it’s still with VA, how long will it take for. Decision on my appeal this was April 25
@Ann Lazarski, thank you for watching. Unfortunately, VA is not required to abide by any deadlines. Therefore, the amount of time it takes to issue a decision varies drastically. However, to read more about the average timeline, please visit: cck-law.com/news-va-disability-claims-appeals-process-timeline
I have learned quit a bit from this video. I do have a question though; I have a rating of 80% the VA sent me the form for TDIU, so I put in for it. As part of the paperwork they sent some paperwork to my former employer. I'm sure that this is normal, however my former employer has refused to fill out and mail in this paperwork. At what point does the VA not bother with dealing with them?
I’m not a lawyer, just someone watching the videos that this channel has posted, but it is my understanding that if they don’t get the form back from the employer, they essentially try about twice and then move on and it is not supposed to affect your claim. Again, that is only my understanding, and I am not a lawyer, but they do cover this I other videos. Best of luck!
You said something interesting. I have 10 different things I'm rated on and I'm at 90% and going for 100% on the normal scheduler rating. Can mine come back TDIU even if I do not want that? Thanks
I had back surgery in February this year, I didn't heal properly and have severe pain. The neurosurgeon told me that he did his job and released me. I told him I was still having increased pain since the surgery and he said it's not his problem. He worded in my record, "pt is cleared with no new symptoms " ,which is a lie, I had to seek other hospital system and neurosurgeon for second opinion and it us determined that I have bulging disc impinging on the nerve and will have to have pain management before surgery. I lost my job as a paramedic and I had filed for Temp disability and was denied due to the wording. Now I have filed for IU and still waiting for the decision. And I'm still in horrible pain that keeps me from sleeping and working. How can I fight and win against his wording?
@Jame R. Rivera Sr. Veterans can request a medical opinion from their treating doctor to help substantiate their claim. Medical opinions can come in handy if the veteran had an unfavorable examination and wants to argue against the examiner’s findings. To learn more about evidence, please check out our blog: cck-law.com/blog/what-evidence-will-the-va-require-for-my-disability-compensation-claim/

I have one quick question. You use the term service-connected disability a few times, and I was curious if secondary conditions are also considered service connected even if they're on a secondary basis.
When applying for SSDI after A Veteran has been awarded TDIU, will personal finances like bank accounts be scrutinized or taken into account by social security when determining eligibility?
I get 50% from my back 10% for Ringing in my ears and they told met at he DAV I can't file for unemployability to unemployability till I get 10 more percent for anything is that true
A surviving child of the veteran may be eligible to receive DIC benefits provided they meet VA’s criteria. Check out our blog about DIC benefits here!: cck-law.com/blog/va-survivors-benefits-qualify/
Is there an age limit when applying? Can you be too old? Thank you.. .. next concern is not having decades of compiled work and medical history.. .. When one is 65 and has moved many many times because of the depression and other issues, homelessness etc. Records are scarce.
@twist-of-faith, thank you for reaching out. Age may not be considered as a factor in evaluating service-connected disability; and unemployability, in service-connected claims.
They know the rules and hope you don't. You can't play their game if you don't know the rules. I see where a person can have PTSD and they won't tell you for for 14 years.
To the lawyer in the middle: Please, please be a little more conscious about your pronouns. 😌 As a female veteran, hearing you say “he/him/his” almost every time you refer to the veteran, is offensive. 😏 Maybe “they/their”, “she or he”, or simply “the veteran”. 🙂
Stop boring us with your lameass bullsh!t. This isn't for gender; it is for information to help ALL, male, female, gay, trans, or cis, Veterans get the benefits they deserve. Fight your gender wars somewhere else.

What if the veteran has already passed away?
What about losing my work as a result of Covid-19
i had a favorable C and p for TDIU and now the VA is requesting a second C and P exam. Developing to Deny. Is this ilegal when the VA is suppose to help you develope your claim? thanks
How did everything go im going through the same thing. Did they try to change your diagnosis?
@@francisholmes4608 my lawyer sent a letter and i havent heard from them. they're just stalling.
@@violetembry1227 I had a c and p 2 months ago and now I'm having a reevaluation.
Does TDIU awards dependents CHAMPVA insurance? Great video!
@gxp5962a, thanks for watching! To learn more about CHAMPVA eligibility, please visit: www.va.gov/COMMUNITYCARE/programs/dependents/champva/champva_eligibility.asp
If I get IU and show improvement and I remove it so I can go back to work?
Can I remove it? Sorry...
How long will VA pay TIDU
Does TDIU at 100% include all the benefits to a 100% scheduler rating?
Hello! Generally, veterans rated TDIU are entitled to the same benefits as a 100% rating. Thanks for commenting!
I have one quick question.
You use the term service-connected disability a few times, and I was curious if secondary conditions are also considered service connected even if they're on a secondary basis.
Hello Brandon, this blog might help answer your question: cck-law.com/blog/what-is-a-secondary-service-connected-disability/
When applying for SSDI after A Veteran has been awarded TDIU, will personal finances like bank accounts be scrutinized or taken into account by social security when determining eligibility?
If I'll be able to receive the back pay?
I get 50% from my back 10% for Ringing in my ears and they told met at he DAV I can't file for unemployability to unemployability till I get 10 more percent for anything is that true
You need at least 70% payable overall to get VA TDIU. It can be combination of multiple claims.
If passed away and if the veteran had a young child.?
A surviving child of the veteran may be eligible to receive DIC benefits provided they meet VA’s criteria. Check out our blog about DIC benefits here!: cck-law.com/blog/va-survivors-benefits-qualify/
If I am @ 100% PT . Can I get unemployable ?
After receiving my 100% .I was diagnosed with PTSD, Should I file for the PTSD, on top of my 100% ?
How can I get a Vocational evaluation for my husband, who’s case CC&K is working on? A Vocational Evidence?
Faith Jones google Clifford vocational services.
Rashard Dennis Thank you very much! Enjoy your day!
Is there an age limit when applying? Can you be too old? Thank you.. .. next concern is not having decades of compiled work and medical history.. .. When one is 65 and has moved many many times because of the depression and other issues, homelessness etc. Records are scarce.
@twist-of-faith, thank you for reaching out. Age may not be considered as a factor in evaluating service-connected disability; and unemployability, in service-connected claims.
If you’re using voc rehab will you be denied TDIU?
No
I always wondered what is, impor-en?
I was thinking the same thing, but she was so pretty that I overlooked it LOL 😜!
What if you already on ssdi
Also think I'm under the umbrella of tdiu I think you said you could help me that with that also
Good morning,
You can reach our team in-office for a free consultation at (401) 331-6300.
Ok how do I get in contact to talk to a va rep.
Hello Mr. Fiest, our office get be reached for a free consultation at (844)567-1185.
What happens when a veterans turns 65
And ssdi benefits turns retirement
It sounds like the VA doesn't know their own rules. Not acceptable.
They know the rules and hope you don't. You can't play their game if you don't know the rules. I see where a person can have PTSD and they won't tell you for for 14 years.
Actually its a thousand dollar difference in pay between TDIU and 100% scheduler
False.
@@rulesyaface 100% is about 3k a month without dependents. TDIU is abouy 4k a month without dependents. Explain your false comment
@@1titansTDIU compensation is equivalent to the 100% schedular rate.
@@rulesyaface No it isn't. 100% means you can still work. TDIU compensates you for not being able to work. How do you guys not know this stuff
@@1titans That has nothing to do with the rate of compensation.
To the lawyer in the middle:
Please, please be a little more conscious about your pronouns. 😌 As a female veteran, hearing you say “he/him/his” almost every time you refer to the veteran, is offensive. 😏
Maybe “they/their”, “she or he”, or simply “the veteran”. 🙂
😩🤦grow up Karen.
Stop boring us with your lameass bullsh!t. This isn't for gender; it is for information to help ALL, male, female, gay, trans, or cis, Veterans get the benefits they deserve. Fight your gender wars somewhere else.
