In regards to funds already received, using their own examples if your already received over 300k your still getting funds worth more than 360k IF you take the monthly option. They, do not in ANY examples of those who have previously received settlements even mention lump sums. And VAC will not...
On the factsheet for the pain and suffering compensation, under payments / lump sum option:
"Lump sum:
The highest possible lump sum payment of the PSC would be the same as the maximum Disability Award payment on the day before coming into force."
So I read that as roughly a 150k kick to the...
Just a sanity check here, if we chose under the pain and suffering compensation a lump sum payment, it is NOT the full value of payments for the projected life expectancy, rather it is 100% of the disability award maximum at that time? Just caught that in the fine print.
Jesus, if they went back on it at this point. That would be ugly. Though they really should have kept all this advertising in house untill parliamentary approval. But again, thinking like a politician tell the vets there getting hundreds of thousands in pretty colorful ads, then put it on...
I've gotta be missing something why am I the only one excited about the half million dollar est cheque I have coming in April?
Considering I thought I got all I was going to get cash wise bring rated at 100 now. Help me get mad here guys what's up with this deal that's bad? Aside from the...
I'm trying to get the appropriate benefits I. Place, and more importantly at the proper grades. I receive the CIA but at the lowest level although I have 100% rated disability via VAC. I submitted a reassessment request, and requesting the supplement. I have your refusal physical IED blasts...
Thanks Rob,
Sets the realistic expectations for me, I am in the same boat > %100 from a combination of physical and mental from two IED blasts to the underside of my leopard.
So I wont hold my breath for anything over the minimum if that.
I was advised to submit an application for PIA and the supplement once I reached %100 a few months back.
The decision "deadline" is in one week, so realistically I might hear something back in a Month or so.
Im fairly unclear on how the approval process works on these however, can any one shed...
Thanks Man I appreciate the response, I had applied for both the EIA and the PIA in the past, but that was before my latest diagnosis and % bump to 100.
Maybe i'll give it another shot.
Stupid system, for those who suffer and strive to work do not get the benefits, where I could easily "give...
Good Morning Guys,
Are there any additional benefits that arise under the new veterans charter once the lump sum payments reach %100?
I know under the old system you could then get the EIA / PIA,, Are we just put out to pasture once we cap out?
No luck on the CIB, they dont consider role 3 and landshtule intensive care.
But, my re-assessment worked out, I dont know how they F'd it up so bad the 1st time. I was able to read through the tables in 30 minutes with my medical form and asses my self at double what they did.
And after their...
Decision reached today for CIB and Traumatic Brain Injury Decision Review, wont tell me anything other the phone though.
Hope to have a (positive) update by Friday!
Hey Teager, how about in your "payment history" section under your current benefits?
Anything show there? The departmental review that is over due in adjudication doesn't show up anywhere either for me.
Hey Rob,
The CIB decision is still outstanding, it was due on Nov.11. I notified the minister and VAC, they says they are running at about the standard + 4 weeks late.
So hopefully i'll have some information on that in the next two weeks.
The departmental review is for a Traumatic Brain Injury...
Hey everyone, I have a departmental review that is due for a decision through the pensions advocates.
They took the case once I demonstrated the only a my last decision could have been reached was to ignore 3/4 of the diagnosis, using all possible rating tables.
Has anyone else gone down this...
