1LARrafe got a reaction from flores97 in C&P scheduled while I was Inpatient
Thanks so much for responding to my questions, needless to say it's NOT been a good weekend for me. But as the Calvin Coolidge quote goes "Perseverance and Persistence are omnipotent". I have sent a question through IRIS and will call Peggy today.
Again thanks for all you do !!!!!

I don't want to give you any false information so take it for what it is worth. If you are rescheduled you should not have any problem. However, to be on the safe side I would write to the Regional Office and state exactly what you have written in this post. Also, you might want to call Peggy and send an email to IRIS. https://iris.custhelp.com/app/ask
Good luck to you

1LARrafe reacted to broncovet in C&P scheduled while I was Inpatient
I was scheduled for a C and P, the RO cancelled it and rescheduled then denied me for failing to appear for a C and P exam. (I attended the "new" exam).
Its called "top sheeting" where the RO only reads a couple paragraphs and whips out the "Claim denied" rubber stamp.
I wrote to Allison Hickey, and, lo and behold the VARO director told me it would not be denied. So, they redid the decision and denied it erroneously (again) because they did not consider all my disabilities for TDIU, just half of them.
So, my advice is to write to allison so you can get a denial for something better, that you can appeal.

What ever you decide to do, write Allison Hickey, send an Iris, call Peggy (1 800-827-1000), make sure you make those C & P exams on August 26 and 27 no matter what. It is very crucial to your claim to never miss a C & P exam. Yes, it is understandable why you missed the first exam but try not to miss or reschedule any future exam because it could cause VA to deny your claim.
