I just called to check on my Board of Veterans Appeals claim and to ask the docket date. Ebenefits was confusing. At any rate, they told me my "docket date" was April, 2009, and they are working April 09 docket dates, and I should have an answer in 30 days. So, if you are interested, the BVA is 3 years, 4 months behind currently. This is not from the date of the RO decision, but rather from the docketed date at the BVA. The RO decision was much earlier, 2008. I have heard a 4.4 year estimate from Veterans for Common sense for a BVA appeal, and this sounds consistent with what I have experienced.
The worst part is if it is remanded to the AMC. The AMC is a black hole where Vets claims go to die, or, more specifically to wait for the Veteran to die.
