That's the crux of the problem..

If you read a Form 4473

He went to the VA.
The VA acknowledge his claim of PTSD.
The state did their job of checking records.

His only recourse is to get the VA to reverse his claim, something I do not think he wants..

100% disability is running around $3,000 a month.. I have no idea what Mr Irlan is receiving,, BUT the current VA administration has made it very easy to claim PTDS.. and that leads to 100% disability, factor in his PH, wife, kids and it may be higher.

There are two edges to the sword..

I wish Mr Irelan a speedy recovery..
