Getting fed up... last night I couldn't find a paper from the VA so I was going to call and have a copy faxed to me but every time I call I either get automated bs or when they try to connect me to a real person I get a message that my call can't be completed at this time...over one freaking piece of paper. They want me to use an online service to get info on my benefits but I can't get a log on until I talk to someone and its a circle of stupid bullshit!
/rant
the va just tends to make everything difficult because if they jerk you around for long enough most people just give up.
and the AHFC has an issue with the house so I need to fix a few things before I can finish getting the house
*sigh*
so frustrated!

How are you, Mark?

I'm so glad the uisness and of today is over.
I'm sorry you are struggling Crimson hun *Hugs* What are VA and AHFC?
You are an awesome person Crimson and you can do this just take a moment and breathe :)

VA - Veteran's Affairs
AHFC- Alaska Housing Finance Corporation

The paper I need from the VA is to show my income from service connected disability so I can get my loan for my house and AHFC is part of the people giving the loan.

*hugs* Thanks but I think you're the awesome one :)

I live in supported housing Crimson so this is way over my head , But I hate buerocracy *Hugs* You're awesome too :)

Progress! after finally getting a person (albeit in the wrong department) and getting put on hold for 20 minutes or so I got someone and got the page faxed to me! i've been working on getting one sheet of paper for 50 minutes now just to clarify my point on the VA trying to get people to just give up.

YAY! Crimson! I knew you would do it! Go you!

*huggles all*

Well, I finally made my 2 1/2 years - 30 months if you prefer - SI free.
