I checked the mailbox and found another VA envelope. I expected to see the usual "please submit evidence regarding the following blah, blah..." letter, but was surprised to see an award letter. It wasn't in a white envelope either. This letter was regarding only the asthma portion of my claim, as everything else was deferred pending receipt of additional evidence.

Original asthma rating: 10%

Increase as of 10/2009: 30%

Increase as of 01/2010: 60%

Original combined rating: 40%

Current combined rating: 70%

The VA used evidence from my treatment records any my supporting personal letter for this decision. No additional C&P examination was given. I was curious about this because I read in a few places that C&P's may not be required if evidence of record was sufficient.

I was surprised about the quick turnaround. I submitted my claim increase request in December 2009. I submitted supporting evidence and my personal letter about two weeks ago.

I sincerely would like to thank everyone here at Hadit for their assistance. I especially want to thank (in alphabetical order) *Bergie*, Berta, Carlie, Cowgirl, Hoppy, jbasser, John999, Pete53, Sawgunner, and Teac.
