My fellow Veterans, I would like your input on this. I filed a claim in 2009 for PTSD and was denied. They stated there wasn't a DX for it until 2008 and no evidence of service connection. There is reference to mental issues dating back to 1994, within 3 years of me being released from the army with other disabilities from Desert Storm. My year to submit an appeal is coming up soon but my counselor advised that we should ask that my claim be looked at again since the new guidelines were signed off back in July. It was submitted back to the reconsideration board two weeks ago.
Has anyone had a claim sent to the reconsideration board? I never heard of that. If so, what kind of turnaround can I expect?
