Question:
Hello Jim, In February of 2018, I was notified (By BVA) that I was approved for 100% TDIU (Back dated to Feb. 2015). It is almost May, 2019 and I am still receiving my (Unchanged) monthly check for 70%...Also, I did not receive my 4-plus years retroactive pay. Two months ago I had a C&P for 2 other claims (TBI & Shoulder injuries) & I haven't heard anything yet... Is that the reason I haven't received my monthly increase or pack-pay (Thanks in advance)?

I can't accurately answer your question without a lot more data. However, if there are other claims still pending, that could well be the reason VA hasn't done a final processing and financial audit on your account. They're waiting for all the dust to settle so that the final accounting will be as accurate as possible. You may be able to ask that all other claims are dropped and that could speed up the final accounting of your appeal...or it could make things a lot worse. I'd try and wait it out were it me.
