ptsd Tracking New Claims?

[11th Armored Cavalry]

Hi All,

I am new here so please excuse dumb questions. I have been reading the posting and see that there are some very knowledgeable people, willing to share.

1. I am SC for PTSD since 1999. I put in for SC for tinnitus, Nov 2004. I put in for SC for back problems July,

2005.

2. I have received letters on the tinnitus, seems to be proceeding.

3. I have received nothing on the back claim, I have called the 800 tracking phone number and they do not see the back claim.

4. My American Legion VSO does not seem to think it is a problem.

My question is, Is there a way my POA(American Legion) tracks these?

How do I find out? Do they lose these claims?

Thanks Jim

did you get a letter from the VA saying that they got your claim for your back? If you got that letter, your Okay. The back claim my be too far behind the tinnitus claim to work both at the same time. If the tinnitus is close to a decision your back claim may just be sitting in your file waiting. I'm not the expert your waiting to hear from but my understanding is that you have one c-file. If you have two claims and they cannot be worked at the same time, they will only work one. Hope that helps.
