Pending Decision Approval

[Cobra4v]

I filed a increase for three S/C conditions. On the day of my C&P exam my status updated from gathering evidence to preparation for decision on 5/25. The estimated completion phase Was at that time 5/27. On the day of the 27th I checked my account again and saw they changed the estimated completion date to 6/8 - 6-27. But the phase was still in prep for decision.

I feel like this is a longer time than usual to be in this phase. On my previous claims I was only in this phase for 1-2 weeks. Are these updates accurate? Seems like a long wait time to have on an increase request for 3 conditions.

Increases are maintenance claims. New ratings take precedence. Prep for Decision just means that all of the evidence is in and it has not been seen by the rater.
