i filed a nod one week before my one year mark. i subbmitted an imo with the nod. one week after i submitted the nod i recieved a letter stating that my nod was premature as they have just made a provisional rating on the contensions i was disagreeing with. thats is why i am asking this quetsion it just seems like an error on the va's part.
-
can a provisional rating be done after a claim is denied.
-
submitted claim in 7-2012
was denied 9-25-2013
filed a nod on 9-22-2014
recieved a letter from va on 9-29-2014 stating that the nod was premature that a provisional rating was just decided. could this be a error. since i was denied on 9-25-2013. any input is appriciated as to what to submitt to the va to correct this error if it is an error. thanks

i used mr. ellis twice this year and in both times i was granted service connect.
the first time was for flat feet aquired and right knee 60%
the second time was for bilateral hips and left KNEE secondary to flatt feet. which gave me 80%. and IM going back to him to help me with IU.
500.00 EACH TIME, WELL WORTH IT SINCE VA DOCTERS WONT LEND A HAND. I WOULD RECOMMAND GOING THROUGH AN IMO EACH TIME FOR A CLAIM.
THE STAFF WAS NICE AND PROFESIONAL. DR. ELLIS IS ALSO A VIETNAM VET
