Question
DblTap1
Claim filed SEP 2011 Claim movement started in AUG13 with receipt of exam notices. Problem is the contractor was sending to a very old address. Looked on ebennies and they too had jumped back to an old address. So I updated VA and saw results of correct address on ebenies a few days later. Also, called and left three VMs with contractor. Was still getting contractor exam notices late because still sending to bad address. Address they were using only COC had. Was never used for official gov mail.
Edited by DblTap1So far I have corrected VA to current address three times this year.
25OCT was able to attend MH exam but contractor still sending to bad address. Made it with <24hr notice
28OCT received letter from VA, bad address
16NOV rec'd BBE all zeros, claim closed nonattendance of exams with notice of how to appeal through BVA. But they did hit the correct address!!
My questions are:
-Is it possible to get them to see where the problem is and simply reopen claim without having to go through the appeal process and adding more years to a two year old BDD claim? If so what would be the proper wording and form?
-How do I track down the MH exam tht was done on 25OCT to ensure VA has it?
-I think I can handle this one but... One of the injuries and relatd surgeries that they are saying is not SC its outlined in an LOD and within DD214 dates. They are accepting the lower limb injuries/surgeries but not the upper limb. Am I correct in assuming that would be a CUE and to just follow the postings here as how to point it out.
Thanks folks!
