B) I received a letter in the mail on Saturday, of course I didn't check my mail until Sunday and now it is quite early on Monday. The letter does nothing to boaster any trust with the VARO on my claim for CUE. The following is the first paragraph of the letter.
"We have received you application for benefits. (Makes no reference to it being a CUE claim) It is our sincere desire to decide your case promptly. (I would hope they would take a little time reading it first) However, as we have a great number of claims, action on yours may be delayed. (Covering the bases I will assume)We are now deciding whether additional evidence or information is needed. ( Care to wonder why they would need additional evidence or information in a claim for CUE?) If we need anything else from you, we will contact you, so their is no need to contact us in the meantime. ( Right Sherlock, I'm going to just sit and hold my breath till the cows come home) If you do write us, be sure to show YOUR file number and full name, or have it at hand if you call. " ( Yea, as if I am likely to forget my SS# and full name.)
What's that old saysing? Fool me once, shame on me, fool me twice, shame on you, but fool me three times, not on your life.I feel like I will have to go down their and spoon feed my claim to them sentence by sentence, paragraph by paragraph, page by page.
