Hello.
I just got a call a few days ago from VA saying that I missed a VA re-evaluation exam on Dec 10,2014.... and they are going to reduce my rating.... I never received any notice of such exam being scheduled, nor when and where to appear... Supposedly it was sent to my mother's old address, along with two notices. The gentleman from the va also informed me two due process letters were sent to that address and supposedly they made multiple attempts to call me, but may have used a different number.... due to this my rating was accreditations to have been reduced... and the best part is this sold have taken affect this month and that it is strange that he got a hold of me and all current contact info was in the system. Told me to contact va rep imidiatly and tell them about his phone call and that he would note that he contacted me.
Called va rep numbers and got a hold of a va rep and told her about the phone call, she looked every thing up in the computer and verified that all my current contact info was in the system, a long with old contact info that the regional va used instead? Any way she said she c would put in something to say i never received re-eval appointment letter and a new one should be scheduled and to give her a call as soon as something developes or some time goes by and and it's been a while... oh and try to worry.
I guess something similar has happend a lot recently to other vets...
well been trying not to worry, only been effective at worrying more!
I have no idea what to do, and feel it's already to late. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all in advance.
P.s.
I have seen it recommended constantly to get a good "aggressive" rep or/and lawyer.
what is a good and "aggressive" rep organization? I filed with just a regular va rep. Is it to late to switch? DAV is recommended by VA or VA reps...
Do i need a lawyer? How do i find a VA claims/disability lawyer, let alone a good one? I can only find Social Security lawyers. ..
Thanks again.

Make sure you have an EBenefits account. The VHA and VBA are not the same data base. You have to change your address in both systems when you move/change addresses. Keep your address up to dat

Heh I know this is not exactly the topic on this post but it sure is convenient for the VA to suddenly forget where you live when it concerns appeals, reductions, and so forth. If the system such oh
