Question

Hi everyone,
My husband spoke to the people at RO in Connecticut. They connected him to a supervisor, who he questioned as to whether they received his NOD on his 1948 claim. She said it was with the Appeals Department and that she would get his file and look and see if it was in it and call him back on Monday.
A half hour later she called him back and stated that she had the file and that she was going to send him a letter out today, which will give him options as to what he would want them to do. She even mentioned that one of the options was if he wanted to go to trial. He forgot to ask what the other options were.
My question to all has this been done to anyone here at hadit before, and if so can they tell us what his other options are? Does this mean that his NOD is being denied and that is why they are sending this letter. In his NOD we state that with his objective medial evidence, his subjective testimony, and a notarized statement from a friend of his, that this demonstrates that he submitted his claim in December 1958. The notarized statement states that his friend witness VA Representative handing him an Application for VA compensation. He witnessed him setting down at the table with and in front of him, and fill out that Application. He witness when my husband finished filling out that Application and getting up and handing that Application to VA Representative who was standing close to them talking to a lady that was in the place. He also witnessed Representative taking that Application and looking at it, and after taking that Application from my husband he witnessed Representative saying to my husband that the VA would be contacting him soon. They then left and came home. This friend also had an opportunity to go with my husband again to the VA in Tazewell to check on the status of my claim.
In the end he states in his NOD that With the objective medical evidence, his subjective testimony and friend's notarized statement Reasonable Doubt or Relative Equipose or both Reasonable Doubt and Relative Equipose should prevail in their decision to grant me an earlier effective date of 1958.
Please let me know what other options they are talking about and does that letter mean that they have denied his NOD.
Thanks everyone!
Charleese
