VA Decision letter vs ebenefits
ok here is a really weird situation, I received notification through ebenefits a few weeks ago and via va.gov that my claim for increase for migraines was granted and went from SC 0% to SC 30% (even though my evidence showed I deserved 50% for migraines frequency , severity, and time off work). when I received the actual letter from the VA in the mail it indeed matched what ebenefits and va.gov said as far as 30%.....fast forward about 2 weeks later....yesterday I logged into ebenefits just to just something and ebenefits says I am now 50% for migraines? my total combined increased to 80% as well to reflect the 50% increase.

Wrong disabilities?
So I filed a supplemental claim via fax in 8 May. It just showed up on VA.Gov last week and the status is: we don’t know your status” Lol. If that isn’t weird enough. I claimed GERD, hiatal hernia, and gastritis. What's listed as disabilities are: Stomach hernia and Giant hypertrophic gastritis. Anyone ever have that weird status before? I’ve seen some people say it was that status until the claim closed. And has the VA ever changed your disabilities?

Living in a foreign country I am in the foreign medical program. Rated for heart disease and diabetes. I have to pay the bill and then get reimbursed from the VA. They only reimburse bills that are related to those two diseases. If I were in the states I would be treated free at a VA hospital for free whether related or not. I have submitted several bills to the VA for reimbursement via both email and regular mail. The amount of money that is owed me is mounting to the point it is creating a financial difficulty. The VA is not responding with an EOB or any correspondence concerning my claims. I do get a check on occasion, but no where near what I am owed. …

Estimated Completion Date Change
Hi Everyone I had a C&P on Thursday February the 27th and they I logged into the VA.gov website on Monday and it said my completion date was between April 14th-17th. So l logged in again yesterday and now the date has been bumped up to March the 5th-9th. Tomorrow is the 5th so I wanted to know is this common practice to move the dates like this. Also can someone tell me what does RFE mean, they have RFE right after the condition that I"m trying to get an increase on, I've also attached a screen shot.
