Question:

Good evening, Sir. Can you tell me where to find the VA regulation that talks about the timeframe to file a convalescence claim?

Almost all of your questions about a temporary 100% rating while recovering from a service connected treatment or surgery can be found here https://www.benefits.va.gov/WARMS/bookc.asp#c 
 

As you browse through Book C you'll be able to see the specific condition you're thinking about and you'll be able to read of the §4.29 Ratings for service-connected disabilities requiring hospital treatment or observation as well as 4.30 - Convalescent Ratings
 

I hope this helps.
