Question

Currently, fighting SC for my husband's schizophrenia. I've posted history in other post, but basically, have no smr's, but have a few different civilian doctors linking it.
Anyways, the appeal is pending and is at DRO review. The NOD was received on 5/11/11.
In the meantime, I had mailed a TDIU form in a few weeks ago just to cover my bases when/if he is deemed sc'd since he is on SSDI.
A week ago, I decided to be a smartbutt and mail in dr notes (that are buried way down deep in his c-file) highlighting in the places that show a link to service, and printed off a copy of the benefit of the doubt rule.
So today I get on ebenefits...
His schizophrenia claim is showing as still pending appeal, but his TDIU has went from received to the gathering stage.
It also shows it is awaiting something from a 3rd party which is a va med in chattanooga that my husband has not previously seen for schizophrenia. Right now, we are unsure if this is a C&P exam, or if they have sent his file for doctor to review.
It also said that it received the medical evidence that I had mailed in last week.
I know any movement is good, but was unsure of the 3rd party thing. He hasn't had a C&P for any mental illness in the past, but I had always thought that it had been because he sees his psychiatrist every 3 months anyways.
Is this good, not good, no big whoop....I don't know.
