My claim is finally going before the BVA for a final decision after 9 yrs. I was given a C&P Exam 2 years ago by a psychologist which was basically full of you know what, which I contested. I have three other Dr. reports that support my claim. One from my VA treating physician.(9 yrs)Who is a psychiatrist along with her tratment notes. One from the SS Adminastration. ( Full disability granted) and one from the PA dept of Labor.(Totally disabled)
How much effect will the negative C&P have before the board. Also will the benefit of the doubt rule apply in this case. I am seeking compensation due to anxiety and depression on the basis of a service connected disability. Any help would be greatly appreceated. Thanks, TIMR.
