By the Bay can you send me a pm so I can email you with some questions. Thanks Xmedic

Hi XMedic,

Yes, I was approved for DTC based on my PTSD diagnosis.
I have no problems answering any of your questions. I am an open book.

Cheers,

Great idea, thanks AirLog

XMedic, you might want to send By the Bay a note as I believe that she has passed on advice on her experience with the DTC.

I'm just shy of 65 so I wasn't interested in CPPD, but the disability tax credit would be great.

also you can get the credit, you don’t have to be CPPD as well

Thanks Unknown Soldier

like everything else surrounding boards, and appeals and VAC and medical professionals, the worst they can say is no. I’ve known people with MS and Cancer who have been denied, but others with mental issues who have been approved. It all comes down to the included documents, and luck of the draw in an adjudicator, I’d say. Just go over the forms with a fine tooth comb, don’t miss anything, it will only delay it, l think the average wait time for an answer is 4 months, and l think you can also appeal a negative response.
