Now that my case has been sent back to the BVA from the U.S. Veterans Court based on my motion for reconsideration being granted I have a last push to do. I have sixty days to send in any new evidence including the time period after their initial decision which was in March 2008. I have a ton of data to send on that end so I am covered there.
The second piece is a hearing with the BVA and or audio cassette testimony from my wife and I. My evidence is pretty strong and I didn't have a hearing the first time because I thought it would prolong my case. I guess not have a hearing the first time actually screwed me because they may have caught their error before making their decision. I am not sure at this point if I should request a hearing or make audio cassette testimony from my wife and myself. It seems like they don't view our own testimony as being worthy.
Has any had a hearing with the BVA that impacted a decision? Should I have the hearing so that I add a human element to this?
