I'm in kind of in the same boat. Just received my CPPD application from SISIP and have been on SISIP for 6 years now. I don't see CPPD as a bad thing especially if you have kids as you will receive a payment for them on top of what you get.

Honestly if SISIP dumps you don't be pissed because VAC will take you on and continue paying you. The goal of the insurance is to find any way possible to get you off it. Have you applied DEC from VAC? If not you should as this sounds like it will benefit you.

No, they don't cover it but there are lots of discounts to gyms for vets I know GoodLife has one.

Do you have any education outside of the CAF? I know that SISIP takes into consideration your education level with your disabilities. If you don't have any education beyond high school then it's more difficult for them to say you can work especially if your disabilities are stopping you from...

It can be. Some struggle getting it others don't. Basically March of Dimes does an in person assessment on you to see what your capable of and that is sent to VAC who then makes a decision.

If you finish the program and are able to work then yes IRB will end. If your unable to work due to your service related injury/illness then you can apply for DEC and you will go through an assessment. From there if approved you would continue to recieve IRB until age 65 and then it will drop to...

That catch is the lawyers take 30%. If the lawyers lose the case there is no fee to you as the law firm has taken out insurance. As of right now they are awaiting a decision on if this case will be fought in federal or provincial courts. Obviously decisions and the speed of everything has been...

It's possible since you were red zoned that they gave you the low end of whatever you claimed just to help get you sorted. They will go back over it once all your other information is submitted and could award you more based on that information. They will not take away what they have given you...

Recieved an update on this.  It can be found on the website. https://www.mcinnescooper.com/services/sisip-ltd-allowances-class-action/ Would this mean the government is not appealing the decision?

I believe this to be true. I put an application in for a benefit came back denied. A year later CM advised me to apply again so I did came back approved by a different adjudicator. Exact same application nothing was added or changed. It's a dice roll a lot of the times.

Approving all claims is no easy task and backlogs would still exist. A veterans percent would still have to be determined for the injury/illness. This in itself would be a backlog. Then you get another backlog with payments which was already backlogged for all those choosing lump sum. For new...

For Reserve members on Class C everything is dated to time of injury not at time of release.

From my understanding yes.

I contacted the law firm in regards to reservists on class C injured oversease. The response was if you received one of the letters saying your apart of the class action then the allowances you were receiving are eligible. They mentioned that they will be compiling a list of allowances that are...

How long did it take to get the form to elect lump sum from them?

If your having trouble with things that VAC is doing or don't understand there are many that can help you sort stuff out so that you can be more comfortable in knowing what is happening or why something is happening. Some CMs can be bad at communicating about why and sometimes some don't...

Call again see what the reason is if they say the same thing then chances are it's correct.

I see VAC attacked anytime they try to provide information on the benefits they provide. Just look at there Facebook page of people saying VAC needs to stop with there propaganda. Except it's literally information on the benefits they provide. There is a difference between benefits provided and...
