Berta,
Thanks for your continued interest in this matter. I am on ebenefits and myhealthevet, just checked and my pension "claim" is closed with
an info letter on its way.
I contacted NVLSP a few days ago for a telephone callback, yet to hear. I don't know what an "addy" is, but if you have their email address
I would appreciate it.
Just to make clear from your postings, if I understand. Was your NSC claim the result of just that filing, or was it for both SC and NSC, with
the SC denied and then NSC awarded with it eventually becoming SC retroactively? I ask, because besides anecdotal evidence, I haven't
heard or read anyone receiving SC from strictly a NSC pension. I've looked at BVA & a few CAVC cases to no avail. I've looked at the
NVLSP Veterans Benefits Manual (2013) at 8.7.2.1, What Counts as a Disability Claim for a Table 8.1 Disease, and it seems a little fuzzy.
The VA Nehmer Training Guide also seems ambiguous to me.
