I'm Worried About My FDC - NO C&P Exam Offered
chomperjones posted a question in VA Disability Compensation Benefits Claims Research Forum
so my claim was submitted on 12/12/2016. I submitted for bipolar/depression (reopen) and tinnitus (new). I sent it in as an FDC with all my evidence. I checked ebenefits on 12/21/2016 and the status is already showing preparation for decision. Is this normal? I haven't even gone to a c&p exam, I haven't recieved any correspondences or anything. For the bipolar depression it is a reopen because when i first filed in 2011, I missed my appointment. After I missed my appointment, the VA sent me papers (back in 2011) saying that they see that i was treated for depression during active duty. but since i failed to show up to the appointment, it was denied. So now i've sent a ton of new evidence that supports my claim and they've reopened the case. But does the speed with which this is progressing means that i am being denied? As noted below, ebennies is showing that the va rep has already made a decision, in less than two weeks. With no exams or anything... What does this mean... Is this normal? have i been denied? Is there a phone number i can call?? im freaking out. Here's what ebenefits show: Estimated Completion: 01/24/2017 - 03/04/2017 STATUS: Preparation For Decision The Veterans Service Representative has recommended a decision, and is preparing required documents detailing that decision. If more evidence is required, the claim will be sent back in the process for more information or evidence -
Anybody ever have a new claim disappear off of eBenefits completely? I filed a new one based on information received from my SMR's when I received them from the National Personnel Records Center. The VA was supposed to have retrieved them under the VCAA, but they were never in my C-FILE, so I obtained them myself and filed them with the VA. I filed the new compensation claim in August, 2014, and it has been sitting on idle in Under Review for several months until a couple of days ago, when it disappeared completely. All other claims and information is still there. Anybody have this happen? Mark

Greetings, New here but doing some research. 50% protected and going through a Increase review, Currently sitting in the per-verbial "PREPARATION FOR DECISION" stage I forgot what it was like to go through this. Then I sign up for ebenifits and found my service rep forgot to put for a increase in my 0% SC liver problem (NAFLD/NASH) and to attempt to do DMII as secondary to same said condition, when I questioned him on it he said I should wait till the current claim is done and the reason he didn't add them in the first place was the 0% one wasn't in his computer system and to open a none FDC will take years to complete so getting this done first is best. anyways I'm here to research and re-learn the system to get the first 50% took three years of filing and appealing. Oh what fun. Anyways I am glad to have found this site... Mike

Greetings to All: US Army (Combat) Vet and daughter of (RIP) USMC Vietnam Vet. Joined with the expectation to learn, and perhaps, even make new friend or two. Am presently in the "Development" phase of a S-C PTSD Claim (Aug 2010). Informed I may have Decision & Rating not later than 31 Jan 2012, so am psyched. Hope all other claimants are having success. I close wishing those who are observant..a very nice, peaceful Holiday Season and safe New Year's. Scorpio Rising
