NIMMS Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 New to the board, question about action after NOD received. My NOD was received two months ago but no appeal has been opened. Is this normal for a regional office to delay opening an appeal? Thanks in advance for responses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Berta Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 "Is this normal for a regional office to delay opening an appeal?" It is normal for a NOD to sit in a stack for a long time. Someone at my RO told me they color code NODs with tabs and don't work on them until the color of tab indicates a year has passed. I don't know if that is true but nothing much happens for months after you file a NOD in many cases. They gave you the exact reasons for denial so now is the time to get the ducks in a row with whatever they said was lacking in the claim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
