Rec'd A Call From The Amc, Friday Afternoon . . .

As many here already know, I have a claim for SMC "s" award, on appeal, from the CAVC, to the BVA to the AMC, at present. The claim was filed in late '99, and would be retro to '89. Last wk I had the C&P exam at my RO. The AMC called stating they are ready to certify it back to the BVA for a decision. She stated that they mailed me the paperwork, along w/a waiver for me to sign, if I had no more evidence and wanted to waive the 30 day period, I could fax it to them. They are ready to move on the claim.

I told the woman that I actually wanted an extension, as I wanted to get a new complete copy of my c-file and I wanted to get an IMO, to submit to them, prior to the BVA making a decision. She then asked "if I wanted to do this even if the claim was going to be approved?" I explained "no," if it was going to be approved it would be an unnecessary step/delay. She then spoke to her supervisor and then advised me I could proceed w/my requests.

I'm inclined, at this point, to wait and see how they decide. I still have the right to appeal, whatever they decide, but am feeling maybe I've won.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

My conscious agrees with you pr. But then again, I always try to read between the lines. I'm betting on the woman's remarks as, it's a go, done deal.

Thanks, cooter! Yup, I agree. No harm in waiting, that I can see. I don't see that I lose any appeal rights, but I could be missing something, too. Oh well!
