The Veteran's claim for retroactive CRDP compensation payments in excess of $2,772.00 for the period from June 2011 to July 2013 is denied as the award was based on complete compensation and CRDP information provided in the December 2019 AEW.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's claim for retroactive CRDP compensation payments was not supported by additional evidence or a change in circumstances, thus denying the request for an amount exceeding $2,772.00.
