Rater Question

[Fletch]

I was called today and the VA rep told me I needed to get my 3 surgical reports since my physican didn't send them to the VA. He sent all my records, just not the reports. Easy enough fix. He said that this is all he is waiting for to be able to send me to the rater.

Since they are sending me to the rater, does this mean I will be rated or is the the stage where they could do either rate or deny?

Thanks in advance!!

Fletch its on you to get the info they asked for or they will delay till the twelfth pf never. I am optimistic that if you do get it to them they will finish your claim fairly quickly.

If it was me I would take it directly to the VARO and ask to talk to someone on the team handling your file and have them sign for the info.

Good Luck

I had kind of the same situation. My claim was with the rater.

Then they ordered a c&p exam.

Hurry up and wait.
