I filed a reconsideration request in Oct 2010. Should have filed a NOD because no action taking on reconsideration. Have had 6 C & P exams with only 2 concerning IVDS lower back and major depression which were both in Jan 2011. Then came more for heart, breathing and chest x-rays in May and June. IRIS kept saying decision was ready to be made but had to file the Nod when another C & P in mid October could not be completed by my 1 year time frame to file the NOD. Now e-benefits say new claim re-opened. So be sure and think about Reconsideration filing. My VSO advised to file the reconsideration and I did. They reduced my 40% for lumbar ivds to 20% and made it effective on day of c & p in sept of 2010, No notice just reduced my pension and then I didn't have the 70% necessary for IU which they denied on those grounds. Had 50% for the major depression. So my wait will continue for a while longer.
