Woke up to a deposit of $600 or so today. VEterans Affairs site shows nothing and Pension site doesn't say anything either. All my co-workers who collect pensions received the same. Anyone know what it comes from?
I opened up myVAC account today to see if I got "my" letter for the top up and saw that my claim that I put in last August was complete. They had all documentation as of December 28th so I was expecting no answers until at least September or later. Funny thing is, it was dated for March 29th, so...
I got the same thing this morning. Asked for VAC1117 to be filled out updating banking info and address. Funny thing is I did all that over a month ago through MyVAC online. Guess I'll wait a little longer for my money...at least it is coming!
All that and a claim I put in last August just went...
My first claim for tinnitus was settled in about 8 weeks in 2012 and a review in 2015 took only 4 weeks. My current claim in the system is going on 27 weeks and just went to step 3, so I'm curious to see how it actually takes...

claim will...
Good thing I called...seems that there was another form needed. Need to have the Doctor fill out the appropriate medical questionaire. I mistakenly thought that this was covered by giving permission for them to collect information from third parties...LOL I need to pay more attention to detail!
I was expecting a longer wait time for it to be completed, but what I was really looking for is how long does it take to show that it is actually in the system? Maybe I'll need to make a phone call...
Instead of staring another thread on MyVAC online accounts...1 question) How long after submitting online until it shows up under "Track your applications" instead of only under "Forms". I realize there is a backlog, just curious about what sort of timeline to expect.
The wording in the denial letter is key. In regards to my case they initially denied my claim because my "hearing loss" wasn't enough to substantiate needing the masking hearing aids. Once they reviewed it for tinnitus, it was approved right away...
one or two key words can make a significant...
As it turns out, a review wasn't necessary. I had my specialist reword and resubmit my prescription as a masking device, not hearing aid. Within a few days I was approved for my prescription and received a call from VAC asking why I wanted a review for something that was being approved...
