Dro Decision

[*Bergie*]

Just a curious question. How long does it take to get an answer from the DRO regarding a NOD I filed in Dec. 08, my VSO says at least a year. Is this true. The claim is for cervicalgia which was increased to 10% May 23,08. No regard for arthritis, DDD/DJD/worsening pain.

Thank you,

Bergie

I filed mine in June 2008, still waiting for an answer. I do anticipate it will be forthcoming in the next few weeks though.

I filed for DRO DeNovo review (no Hearing) in April, 2008. I received a short VA letter late Sept. 2008, they "received my claim". Nothing since, not even a kiss goodnight. I suppose in a few more months I should receive the customary kick in the b-lls or perchance a drum roll. *Oh yes! Tried the VA toll free---boy were they nasty. Second mistake, tried the AMVETS--they never returned my calls, sound familiar?? Service Officer has now progressed to: ServiceLess Officer Or De-No Service Officer.
