Gathering Evidence to Preparation for decision and back
So opened my claim in March of this year and I actually submitted in May. I had my C & P for PTSD on August 8. Before August 8, my completion date was between September 15 to December 11, 2017. After my C & P, my date changed from September 17, to December 12, 2017. This morning, my status was gathering evidence with the same September 17, to December 12, 2017, completion date. At around noon today, my status changed from Gathering Evidence to Preparation for Decision. Since I'm impulsive, I checked again at 3pm today (still August 29, 2017), and my status changed back to Gathering Evidence with a new completion date of December 2, 2017, to February 24, 2018. Also…

Secondary Action Required?
C&P exam performed, unfavorable, but many contradictions, claim went to prep for decision. I rebutted and shot holes in the Dr's opinion/rationale by quoting/ stating regulations/ laws and bringing up the fact that he changed my diagnosis from that of my local VAMC, said it was pre-existing, but did not address whether it was aggrivated by service. Claim went back to gathering evidence.request 2 came out, which was a request to the same Dr for an opinion as to aggrivation. Again Dr stood his ground, but clearly contradicted himself. Claim immediately went back to prep for decision. Again, I rebutted and shot holes in his response, quoting regulations/ laws a…

From Pending Decision Approval to Under Review.
Has anyone ever had this happen on ebenefits? To be clear; my claim was at pending decision approval yesterday, and now today my claim is at under review. I know at pending decision approval they can send it back for more evidence, but doesn't the claim usually go back to gathering of evidence?

eBenefits SNAFU
Here is the most confusing thing I have seen yet on ebenefits. These notices are all from today, appear simultaneously, and refer to the same claim. Also, the status on VA vets.gov says the claim has moved back to: Evidence gathering, review, and decision. From, preparation for notification. And best of all: No letters of any kind in the mail for this claim. Talk about being kept in the dark! Status of Your Claim COMPLETE Submitted: 01/30/2017 (Appeal) Claim Closed: 07/31/2017 Disabilities Claimed: TDIU (New) Representative for VA Claims: redacted Current Status: Complete Status of Your Claim …

Retropayment
I filed my first claim back in Marc 2016 and received a 90%. I filed a second claim for a non service connected disability and received 10% with a effective date back to March 2016. I have just received a white notification letter with percentage of that 10%. Do I receive back pay for that single 10% disability dated back to the original claim effective date?

Preparation for Notification and AB8
This may be a dumb question, and I know I shouldn't rely on EBenefits, but if my claim is in Prep for Notification, should the AB8 letter have changed if claim was granted? Or does it update only after completion?

No Data on eBenefits
Now I know eBenefits is one of the most frustrating sites in existence so my expectations are pretty low. I used to be able to go onto eBenefits and at least generate a letter, see my claim upload documents and a few other things. Now however I CAN'T do ANYTHING. I just get error messages and told to contact the VA for assistance and am provided with an error code or two. For instance when I try to generate a letter I get: We are unable to generate your letter due to incomplete information contained in our systems. Please try again later or call VA at 1-800-827-1000 (711 if you use a TDD) and select Option 7, Monday-Friday, 8:00 am - 9:00 pm ET, …
