I cannot thank Woods & Woods, LLP, for making and posting these videos. The information contained is invaluable to those in need of assistance in developing their claims for VA disabilities and TDIU. The clear and concise manner in which the information is conveyed is the most effective way to secure positive results. I hope all veterans suffering from ANY service-connected injury, whether physical, mental, or both, will watch these videos and take heed. Don't hesitate to call professionals, as well.

Great video!

Amazing video

Jan Dils is helping me right now. I'm at 50 percent in appeal for 70 or higher I need to be on TDIU. I am loosing control. I suffer from PTSD and MST. Took them 18 years to pay me after several denials.

Thank you for this video. I go Monday for my mental health unemploability and I am REALLY nervous. This calmed me a little...if anyone else would like to discuss please comment

What if I own my own franchise. But my v.a shrink and therapist said that was the issue causing my problems. So I sold it. And seven years later I’m still suffering from mental and physical conditions.

I know this was posted a year ago, but i have really bad issues they grouped my "issues" as massive depressive disorder and they wont give me anything above a 70% for everything. I have nightmares to the point i actually hit my wife in her sleep and i told them that and they just kind of brush it off its difficult to even get help from them at this point

Hellow woods and woods I was rated up from my private doc. In 2001 I was 100% UI frommy doc A Kaise doc Fremont ca. It was in 2001 I foundour that I may get medical From the veteranshjospita

Sir I was totalling 70% combined rating with 30% flat feet, 30% depression, 10% lumbar spine, 10% left knee and 10% right knee when I filed for tdiu in January..today I checked my ebenefits online and saw that my combined rating is increased to 80%...70% for depression, 10% flat feet, 10% left knee, 10% right knee, 20% lumber spine, the decision letter is in the mail tho..so my question is do you think my tdiu is granted and is it possible to verify that online. Thank you

70% ptsd...combat desert storm..56...

I have 10 % hypertension and 70%ptsd and now it is hard for me to drive a car i cannot concentrate driving i dont kniw why

I am serve connected for PTSD due to MST with numerous other mental illnesses. Can you cover how ADHD and Bipolar disorder were potentially preexisting and aggravated by military service and co-exist with PTSD? Is it worth filing for ADHD and Bipolar disorder if you are at 70% PTSD rating 30% Migraines?

👍🏾

If I have a 70% for mental health and a 90% overall do I have a decent chance of convincing them?

What if you have no past co-workers who will help?

my ptsd is at 30% do I have to get the ptsd up to 50% to get TDIU ??

I have 70% for ptsd. Do I need to apply for an increase first , or just go ahead and get a lawyer?

I have 70% ptsd & recently stabbed myself in the chest with a knife - causing heart & lung issues. Would that be enough for 100% tdiu?

Can you lose your TDIU if your spouse files married filing Jointly on their tax returns?

Cant you be awarded 70% & TDIU off your initial claim if the C&P exam & other evidence shows qualification or are you saying you never get TDIU from initial claim and you always have to apply for it after your initial rating?

Occupational Assessment (OA)? Didn't hear a thing about that.......Medical evidence is one thing, the OA is the Nexus between Medical and not being able to work due to PTSD and related issues. Medical experts typically have no clue how the workplace works, how to get and keep a job, though their inputs can add to these issues. A typical OA Conclusion: This evaluation was completed utilizing the peer reviewed, and RAPEL methodology. This evaluation has been completed within industry standards. Unless otherwise noted, or where assumptions are stated, all opinions expressed herein are provided within a reasonable degree of vocational and rehabilitation certainty. This individual's post-traumatic stress disorder and tinnitus with residual emotional, cognitive, and physical impairments presents a severe impact on his ability to obtain and maintain employment. Based on the results of the Vocational Evaluation performed on him as well as his retirement age, high school with some college education, and past experience of skilled work as an IT Specialist/Contracting Program Manager, the following are my opinions, as a Vocational Expert, regarding Mr. Veteran’s employability: 1. Mr. Veteran is unable to perform his past work as an IT Specialist/Contracting Program Manager on a sustained, full-time, competitive basis. Employability Evaluation on Mr. Veteran. June 6, 2022 2. Mr. Veteran’s past relevant work as an IT Specialist/Contracting Program Manager is considered skilled work, but due to his severely reduced vocational capacity resultant of his severe service-connected psychiatric and physical impairments, he is unable to transfer his skills to other types of jobs. 3. Mr. Veteran is unable to perform any Sedentary, Light, Medium, Heavy, or Very Heavy Work existing in the local or national economy on a sustained, full-time, regular, competitive basis due to the residuals of his service-connected post-traumatic stress disorder and tinnitus. 4. Mr. Veteran is unemployable for any job existing in the competitive labor market due to his severely reduced emotional and physical functional capacity. 5. I have reviewed Mr. Veteran’s medical records, conducted a standardized vocational interview, assessed his mental and physical functional capacity, conducted a transferability skills analysis based on his current vocational profile, and conducted a Labor Market Research Survey in the xxx County, Texas area where the unemployment rate was 3.1 % in March 2022. In my expert opinion, Mr. Veteran has sustained Total Disability Individual Unemployability as defined by the ’s Administration. In my opinion, as a Vocational Expert with 49 years of experience, there are no full-time jobs Mr. Veteran can perform in the local or national labor market on a sustained, regular, competitive basis due to his service-connected emotional, cognitive, and physical impairments.

So basically you have to be bat shit crazy to get TDIU that hurts

these people are giving sound advice for people who really are suffering. please dont use this to get something you should not really have. if you seriously are suffering (i mean really do suffer) then go for it. dont exaggerate your illness or symptoms just so you can be lazy when your mental health does not effect you as bad as some others do.if i could i would go back to 70% va for my schizophrenia. i would make more money working that way. from my 70% va, 70% military retirement and whatever i could make from working.

there out of business
