Damn, got my hopes up. I missed the cynicism bug going around last time...

The generic reply, and you "should" receive a more "personal" response soon. I think the turnaround is five business days for a response, although as it is specific to the CIB, it may take a little longer. This information was included in an e-mail to staff today. It expands on the criteria for...

Not entirely sure what the aim of the original question is. Once you hit the maximum 100%, you have hit the total amount payable for your pensioned/awarded conditions. However, this does not prevent you from applying for reassessments or even for new medical conditions not previously...

Not if they're on their backs...

Dunlop303 Not surprised. There has not been an official communiqué internally on the CIB. The last we got, dated 02 JUL 15, was on the Veterans Hiring Act, and on Enhanced Transition Services. There was information posted to the internal Web set, but not everyone thinks to look there...

Posted online today: http://www.veterans.gc.ca/eng/services/after-injury/critical-injury-benefit There's an "Apply Now" button, plus the 1-866 number, a link to help you find an office, and if sending an application by mail, an address. There is a "Rates" link, but it's a non-starter at this...

I read it so quickly at first I thought it was the canned response :) There hasn't been any official word about implementation. If and when I hear something, I'll post. This is one of those things about ministerial announcements. Looks great on paper, but getting the policies, procedures and...

I would only be hazarding a guess, as I've only dealt with one Chapter 19 assessment since the 2006 Edition came on line. I'll see what I can find out.

Never tried myself in the past, but there is a link <a href="http://www.canada.ca/en/campaign/supportforveterans/veterans.html">here</a> which allows you to subscribe to receive an update once the benefit is approved.

From the refreshed version. So, some of you may note, Q9 above is different from Q9 I previously posted. Watch and shoot for more!

That's why you've got me!  ;D

Nothing yet on the external VAC Web site ref Royal assent, but the internal site has been refreshed, and the Q&A I mention above has been updated. I'll read through tomorrow, and advise if I note any major differences.

The adjudicators may have also used the General Assessment table...which, not to confuse things, but isn't actually a Table in existence in the Table of Disabilities. It's used to assess as best and fairly as possible those medical conditions which don't fit perfectly into one specific box...

Your Official Decision will contain some basic information, including the Medical Impairment rating they've awarded; the Quality of Life level awarded; and the medical evidence they reviewed in preparing their decision. Because of the complexity of TBIs, it could be assessed under either...

Wait and see what criteria VAC determined you met according to the Table of Disabilities. From there, you can build your case for a higher Medical Impairment rating.

:goodpost:

I sense a new thread...

No, sorry. I forgot to mention it is internal at this time. We're still waiting on Parliament to pass the required legislation. Anyone else notice how all the Conservative ads have the little itty-bitty writing at the bottom, "Pending Parliamentary Approval", or similar wording?

A Q&A page went up not long ago, and I thought I'd post some extracts. Reminder, this has still not passed through Parliament yet. Personally, I think the 120 estimate is frighteningly low. And it's non-taxable.
