Question
COOL BREEZE
Is it possible two file 2 different types of appeals for the same issue? The DAV filed a claim stating "As the accredited representative for the above referenced claimant, we are submitting the attached material as a claim for benifits administered by the Dept of Veteran Affairs Please take action to consider the following: Entitlement to service connection for urological leakage, bilateral tinnitus: and nerve damage, bilateral feet. It is requested all appropriate development, to include conducting any necessary VA examinations be completed as soon as possibIe. Just got this letter from the regional office(DAV) in Phoenix(not sure why it took so long or why that stated as such) I told the VSO that the urological and nerve damage was not addressed and left out of claim, they were filed as requesting to be service connected over 1 year ago. And I had the ear comp exam where they noted I had tinnitus. Since they already sent this in as a new claim and not as a reconsideration as asked, I thought I would file my own reconsideration explaining the reason why, and that the DAV should have put this in as such. It really is starting to get my blood pressure boiling. I asked and got some wonderful advice here. Armed with that knowledge I went and got another VSO who should have filed the claim as a re-consideration not as all new claims. All of those issues were addressed during the comp exam, but not put in the final claim. It looks, and please help me with this, I should just do this own my own. I can't be having these claims done wrong - it will take years to complete. I have a stack of new claims that I will be submitting after these current issues have all be resolved and completed. So should I just file a reconsideration for these claims and let the new claim they put in stand, or tell them I just want a reconsideration only and I will be doing this my self. I am going to be nice and not say anything bad about the help I have been receiving, I will leave that to the members here to render judgement.
