How long does it take to get C-File after FOIA is complete on Ebenefits?

[kent101]

My C-File FOIA shows it was completed on ebenefits this month. How long do you think it'll take to get it in the mail?

I believe mine took about 7-10 days. Not long.

K , when did you file the C-File FOIA?

BL, how long was your wait for the FOIA C-File, paper or CD?

I received my 1st C-File FOIA 01/2014 about 15 months after Hand Delivery of FOIA to my RO. Received a 9in stack of paper.

My 2nd C-File FOIA request took 8 months to receive CD after Faxing it in 01/16.

My C file took 7 months total after mailing it in, from April to November. It was on a CD.

I think it was about 8 months ago I filed. EBenefits says they closed the claim about a week ago. Now I'm waiting for it to be mailed to me.  I hope it comes this week in the mail.

I'm 4 months into waiting on a copy of my c-file.  I requested  a cd copy of it.  The first request took over 2 years.

Just maybe, the VA is getting on the stick.

Then again, the conversion of all C-Files to E-Files has eliminated the clerk making all the copies; bagging or boxing them and shipping.

The searchable aspect of the CD makes any wait worthwhile.

I wasn't sure I'd get a complete copy, or just back to the Date of my 1st C-File FOIA. Haven't shred the old copy yet, as it was all on the New CD.
