Vet denied increase in previously granted claim, and vet using VA Form 21-4138 to file for NOD, DRO, Personal Hearing and DeNovo.
Now should vet file VA Form 21-526b because "Some of the areas in section 7 & may pertain to some of issues vet has claimed?
ie Increased Evaluation...Service Connection...NOT REOPENING AS IS IN APPEALING STATUS ALREADY...may have Disabilities Secondary, not previously applied for.
This form(21-526b) looks like one someone may use if at a later date they want to put in for more issues, or one they never appealed...
Seems the 21-4138 would be the only one and sufficient one.
Appears if one used the 21-526b here they would be redundant and wasting their time for this type of appeal process. Right?
