My appeal was a legacy. NOD was filed in late 2016. Form 9 was filed September 2019. BVA remanded my appeal to the director of compensation in Feb 2020 which was granted. May 26 2023 (I think) it went to a judge is reviewing your appeal or something close to that wording. June 29 BVA granted my appeal. No hearing. I started out at 10% on left long finger, then in April of 2018 I got 10% for tinnitus, remand in Feb 2020 bumped my left long finger to 20% and left ring finger to 10%, in Feb 2021 I got 60% for loss of use of non dominant hand (left hand), in December 2022 I got 30% radiculopathy in my right arm and 20% radiculopathy in my left hand, and 20% for a cervical disc replacement. The two arms and loss of use of hand are all bilateral. In February 2023 I was granted IU. And that's how I got to this point. Its been a long journey to go from 10% to IU.
