I would suggest you contact either the DAV, American Legion, or VFW for assistance. I tend to lean in the direction of the DAV. All these organizations seek to aid soldiers and are excellent sources to point you in the correct direction should they not be able to help you directly.

I am assuming either backpay or increase in payment rate. Normally there is a delay in the sending of information. Call again to the VA to verify the information and have them submit a request for you. This can move your paperwork forward thus getting you payment in two weeks.

Well sir this is what has happen, I was granted 100% temporary for 90 days and it was approved and I even got a letter from them saying so. The problem is the 2 of them blame the other, now DFAS say's they are doing an audit on me, that was 4 month's ago.

Okay, if that is the case ask DFAS for more information and a timeline as to when it can be done. You may have to get a representative involved most states have them for disability compensation and their services are free. SFC Tom Jones
