I just received notification that my NOD for an EED for DMII was denied. The main reason was that after I was initially denied for DMII, I did not appeal within 1 year. I missed the deadline by a month and a half (does not matter). I then ask them to re-open the claim, and they did and granted me 20%, but made the effective date the date the claim was re-opened 8-28-08. In their denial they are saying that my earliest Dx was May 2006. I honestly thought that when I first put in a claim for DMII, they would test me. Wrong. I'm more upset with myself, but it really gets me that they take over 2 years for something like this. To tell me that I missed a deadline. Yes, I'm a Vietnam Vet. Does or would Nehmer play a role in my case?
