The whole thing seems pretty damned silly if you ask me. Most companies probably won't respond due to fear of opening themselves up for litigation and lawsuits.

The rate of sleep apnea in veterans versus the general population is what you need to be looking at.
If you don't think it's warranted you can always
forward all available funds to me. -
I'm waiting on a TDIU case to be determined. I logged on to ebenefits today and noticed that the VA had sent 21-4192 letters to 2 old employers with a due date of 4/14/15.
What happens on the "due date" if no action is taken by the employer and they don't send it in?
I haven't seen much on the 21-4192 and I'd like to know more about the process.

I shot an email to Bob and got a DRO hearing in about 30 days. The lady I got was very adversarial and acted like I was trying to steal her milk money.

So far I really like it. From the "dashboard" you can click on disabilities and it shows everything you've been approved and denied for which I thought was kinda cool.
Seems to be more intuitive, slightly faster and a more stable platform.

I got a 64 for you as well using those numbers.

I'm back to Gathering Evidence after my C&P... Just chillin'.

Your posts are difficult to read when you leave your CAPS LOCK on.

i clicked it after 4 years of waiting. still nothing. been 2 months.
After 4 years you need to be emailing Bob and his sidekick.

I have. It was late and I noticed I had not checked on my claim status in months. I checked on the status and my claim still had not moved. I clicked on that option and the next week I was in for all of my C&P examinations. 4 weeks later my rating came back on eBenefits as being 100% I/U (90% total). I'm not sure if it was because I clicked on the tab or if it was because it had already been a year since first submitting the claim. It could be one, the other, or both perhaps. I personally had no new information to report to the VARO so I didn't feel as if I had anything to lose.
You and I are the only 2 people I know of who have hit the button and we both received positive results in terms of getting C&P exams scheduled straight away. It maybe too early to tell, but I'm hesitantly optimistic about this new feature.

In Nevada they add up every disability and don't use the VA's screwed up math. It's saved me a lot of money in car registration the past few years.
-
Not to worry. I hit the button and went to Prep for Decision after a few weeks. Now, just went back to gathering evidence, or whatever it's called, and now have a C&P this Friday.
Had my C&P on Friday and now my estimated completion guesstimate on ebennies is 3/16 to 10/16.
I know the dates on there don't mean much, just updating.
-
If you take a screenshot at the time you upload it you'll have proof of the dates. Here's an example.

I like the convenience of the electronic options, however, there nothing like holding that royal flush of green cards when they, the VA states they didn't receive that document.
If you take a screenshot of the uploaded documents isn't that just as much proof as having a card from USPS?
-
I would caution anybody on checking the box and hitting send before having a C&P exam because if you do you are saying that you don't need an exam!

This is why VA Is s joke...instead of providing an option to say that the veteran has provided all documents and to go forward with the claim. You have to wait 30 days for this time to elapse.. What a joke.. To speed up the process maybe you can upload a short letter saying that all in formation is in VA's hands and maybe they can close your case once they receive the letter.
What's funny is I actually did hit the new "go button" and then I got this notice about 3 weeks later.
-
Logged on to ebennies today and saw this but have no clue as to what it means. I'm currently at Prep for Decision for TDIU, I've submitted all my evidence, and hit the "hurry up and make a decision" button on ebennies. Any ideas?
-
Absolutely ridiculous! Government incompetence, corruption and on and on... Down the toilet bowl we go.
-
Just went to Preparation for Decision today. 25 days after I punched the get'er done button.
-
Awesome!
-
Today's news seems to cast doubt on the VA's numbers of those "fired" and for what.
(So what else is new?)
It would appear that the 900 fired number was highly inflated. I would not doubt that he was repeating a number that was given to him by one of his underlings. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/fact-checker/wp/2015/02/18/no-the-va-has-not-fired-60-people-for-manipulating-wait-time-data/
-
I punched the button on 1/27 and haven't seen any movement.
-
I believe you can just submit a new claim and the 2 will be merged.

Here's the video of the actual exchange: http://www.c-span.org/video/standalone/?c4527477
Interesting to note is that Bob, or one of his people, is reading Hadit and similar websites by his statement made in the video.
forward all available funds to me.

I filed for an increase, received it, and got backpay to the date I filed. Maybe I'm not understanding you correctly but the vet should be entitled to backpay from the date they filed for the increase.
