Good Morning Vets, Well I am 100% service connected. I have an appeal pending at the Montgomery, AL Regional Office. I Chose the DRO route. The VA received my claim on February 11, 2016. I'm still waiting as well. I am appealing the effective date on my appeal. I'm not sure how much longer this is going to take, but when I call the VA, they tell me that the average time for an appeal is about 314 days at my Regional Office. I'm well over that mark. I had a packed C-File and the VA hasn't asked for any additional office. Even though my C&P evaluation even said that I was diagnosed by the VA a couple of times prior to my last Diagnosis in 2015. I started receiving my 100% Service Connected Disability on January 1, 2016. I'm hoping that they will finish up and correct the effective date of which it should be when evidence of the disability was known to exist.
