VAC 40,000 backlog - Bonuses for Poor Service?

and here we go again right after the governments own report came out to show how very low the benefits are for the newer vets as they are for the vets covered by the PA .

wow

100% vets went from over $4000.00 or more a month to $1150.00 a month for pain and suffering .

giving the vet the option to get that monthly benefit that is equal to the previous lump sum they take away the CIAS worth $1145.00 yet another overall reduction .

oh wait reductions are not enough . lets have them apply for multiple smaller befits instead of just one large one . I mean in the last study done those that felt wronged by a decision could go to VRAB, for a fair shake, witch errors in its denials at a 65% clip . so even if they deserve the quickly shrinking benefits they would not have a good chance at getting them anyway let alone all of them .

a money pot pie ??? I don't know.

but if it ever was and you are in fact a disabled vet I would suggest you spend a lot of time and effort in a fight to get your tiny little piece because there is only a small sliver left and shrinking fast.

See, that is the type of mentality, that really hurts the cause of veterans. The bureaucrats don't care about the daily pain and suffering that severely disabled Veterans have to endure. They just see the benefits that they "may be" entitled to, like it's some kind of windfall. Sure, if there was a lottery, to win $5000 a month, for life, the winner would be considered very lucky. But if they had to cut off a leg, just to put your name in the draw, you'd be hard pressed to sell many tickets.

I would have quit VAC long ago- a 10000+ buckaroos bonus wouldn't keep me. (see how long VAC ministers last -they can't handle it)

Besides IF you get all the benefits ELB, CIA, CIAS, VIP, Att Allowances, free secondary schooling, lifelong pension, IRB-90% or 70%, plus $50-$10000-250-$378000.00 disability award. Just with these your set for life.
If you are one of the lucky service man getting a lifetime pension of $300-1000-4200+ monthly tax-free if released prior to 2006.

Seeing this, ALL retired/serving veterans see all these funds and they want a piece of the MONEY PIT PIE.
So the staff at VAC are overwhelmed by 40000 plus submissions plus policy changing ministers. Not to mention appeals. They can't keep up!
************ I haven't even mentioned Sisip benefits.!

I would rather be working at Joe's septic services or mike gravediggers.

Also, either I am reading u wrong but u state one of the “lucky ones”. I no a lot of Veterans that are seriously disabled and put through the ringer by VAC, myself over 100% we are not the lucky ones. I would rather have finished my career unscathed with a full pension.

Major Mark Campbell would rather have both of his legs back then all the benefits you mentioned.

VAC creates there own problem not veterans DENY DENY DENY!!!!!! And then you wonder why there is such a back log of files wake up smell the coffee there is only 2 places to place the blame GOVERNMENT AND VAC

Are you a disabled Veteran?

It’s not about the front line workers it’s about Senior Management.

It’s disgusting to have a backlog like this, change 3 systems in 15 years.  VAC is now learning the price to pay for changing the system s in mid stream.  I signed on with the PA system and it developed into a fucking mess.  VAC senior staff only goal is to save money and pay future veterans less through government in power direction.

I feel sorry for future Vets.  No one should wait over a year for a confirmed injury. BTW I would rather pump shit then deal with VAC.

After reading the below article regarding the backlog at VAC which in fact is getting worse by the month.  The liberals said this would be fixed and they did add a certain amount of money to try to fix this very serious problem with no avail.  It’s just getting worse and worse with no improvement at all.

So I was wondering after 3 years of Liberal control nothing is fixed, just repositioning of MVA’s with a revolving door at VAC.  They are only figure heads with little serious input.  The problem is senior management at VAC, so when are heads going to roll at VAC?  An inquiry is needed at bare minimum into the waste, delays, and backlogs.  Simply blaming past government control is a bad excuse, Liberals have had 3 years to fix this problem with their only result it’s getting worse.

I have also asked a friend to enquire if any bonus have been paid to senior management at VAC in the last three years, he knows how to submit a ATI and if in fact they are getting bonuses at the expense of Veterans they should have to return payment in my eyes.

Watch and Shoot!!!!!

Steelgunner out.

PS: from a another friend with a good point that does not post on here.
“Lets see who responds, veterans affairs is under a socialist, insurance system right now and being drawn up by a manulife lawyer who os using a manulife system! Watch the denials to come and the hoops and reviews of our files every two years, more doctors reports and specialist reports are going to be required in the future on already settled claims. Veteran's are going to have to have a camp out on parliment hill or face a life of stress and misery.
