I have a few claims in but my reconsideration is what my concern is. I call that 1-800-827-1000 number to find out what the status of my reconsideration is. A few months ago there was some confusion if I had put in for a appeal or a reconsideration. A NOD was sent to me requesting exactly what system I wanted to go with. I had the choice between a reconsideration, DRO or a traditional appeal. I choose the reconsideration. I had already notified them of that decision months ago. I just excepted the fact it did not happen even though I had already requested reconsideration and had received a letter from the VA saying they received the request. I have everything in as far as evidence and ready to have my claim reviewed. Well when I call the answer I get is that my "records are ready for review". Then I ask ready to be reviewed by who? I promise I can not get a answer to that question. Today the answer was "their handling your claim at the regional office in Columbia SC. Then I ask who is going to handle it? What is the next step, then i get the answer is "its ready to be reviewed" I can not get a answer as to who is going to review it. Its like a circle question. Can anyone tell me what may be happening. My reconsideration has been in since May 2011. I had a C&P exam for it in August 2011. My initial claim goes back to Jan 2010. I know these time frame is nothing compared to some people but my case has been cut and dry and ready for movement without any confusion or addtional informtion required. (Open, eviedence submitted, ready for review) Case closed or should I say case still open. Where and who is my claim ready to be reviewed by?
