HairyVNV

In January 2011 I was told by the VA that my claim for IHD/Agent Orange was in the hands of the rater. They also said it normally takes 27 days for this phase. In late March 2011 I was told by the VA that my claim is with the rater. This claim is a nehmer claim and was started in October of 2009 with the original claim filed in 2003. I understand having to wait until October of 2010 for Webb and his cohorts to make there decision( sort of) bu at the same time they said they were looking at ways to expedite claims. It has now been an awful long time in process and seems to be stuck at the raters. Does anyone know about how much longer this might take and if there is anything the vet can do to get them moving. I am still kicking but at the rate they are going who knows.
