Appt Already?

[clw4514]

so i applied for IU within the last few weeks. not expecting any answers for at least a few more months from the way everyone says they r backed up. but, today, i get a call to verify my address and they say that an appt is being sent out to me that i *must* make. is this normal? i mean both the appt and the speedy response? and if the appt is normal who in the world would it be with? another c&p exam? ugh, im confused as usual.

If you applied for IU than you will be given another c&p exam. A claim for IU is considered a claim for increase. It's anyones guess as to why you were contacted so quickly, but consider yourself lucky.

Do not miss that appointment whatever you do. I think you got lucky.

thanks all! i am counting my blessings!!! of course, i could still get declined for IU but im still gonna give it a go. I owe it all to hadit.com & the members.

i got the envelope from the VA today. sadly, it wasnt an appt but the additional forms to fill out :( oh well, thats cool. rcvd it quicker than expected too. i guess the lady was just confused when she spoke to me. <sigh> and so i wait.

and i got the appt today. its for 10/15 w/ an outside company. is this good or bad being with an outside company? anxiety is kicking up a notch or 2 now.

I actually think it is good. Most of us are very suspicious of anyone on the outside but at least you will be dealing with professionals which does not always happen at the VA.

Good Luck
