Can new evidence be submitted by the veteran while the claim is being "certified?" Thanks Jim, It means they are actually dotting all the i's and crossing all the t's and preparing all of your paperwork (C-file) to pack up and physically send it to the BVA now. You should get a letter soon telling you the file has been transferred, etc... Yes, you can continue to submit additional evidence BUT - I would wait until I get the official notification that the file has been transferred. Then any additional evidence you submit - you will submit it directly to the BVA. It is of utmost importance that any additional evidence you do submit, be accompanied with a signed WAIVER OF REGIONAL OFFICE CONSIDERATION. IF NOT - you will add tons of time onto your appeal because the BVA will have to remand the additional evidence back to the RO for their consideration of it. Here's a link so you can print out copies of the, WAIVER OF REGIONAL OFFICE CONSIDERATION. carlie http://www.hadit.com/forums/index.php?act=...ost&id=3055 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuaymasJim Posted May 21, 2010 Author Share Posted May 21, 2010 Thank you for the advice! I can certainly see the importance of the timing of sending in additional information and the RO waiver. I have attached a pdf of the waiver form. Don't know where to put it other than here. Please move it to where ever it should be. Thanks againWaiver_of_Regional_Office_Consideration.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
