Next week I have my Admin Law Judge hearing I have an attorney but have some questions. Background I am 70% PTSD and am IU so 100% VA. I don't know what to expect during the hearing. My attorney is worried about the financial situation with VA and FERS disability retirement thinking it will be...

It ended up being the difference between va pay and the air force pay that was back payed. For example the difference was around $800 a month dated back to when I filed the claim.

Dcmd124, My claim is at the St. Paul, MN VA.

Hi Combat Eng, What I think is interesting is that on November 1st 2013 I had my C&P exam and then now it's at ACE Opinion at RO. I have no idea what they are doing.

Does anyone know what this means? I have no idea. I submitted my claim for an increase in compensation and unemployability back in March and the status went from pending decision to ACE opinion at RO.
