Question

According to Ebenefits my claim has been sitting @ Pending Decision Approval for over two weeks. I've called 1-800-827-1000 twice & their response is that my claim is in notification phase with an average 15 days to receive.

If you haven't noticed the new tool on Ebenefits to " File a VONAPP claim with assisted guidance" I suggest using it. You don't have to finalize the claim, and it shows you your rated disabilities, and what percentages they are. MY IBS claim was deferred, along with the mononeuropathy/ lower radiculopathy bilateral lowers. They did rate a couple other increases, I have not gotten a notification as yet and it still shows using this tool. It's a good thing to check about a month after your exams, especially if your claim is dropped back down from pending decision.

I was awaiting my decision for disability compensation and I walked into the regional office and they told me that I was in the pending decision approval phase and I had a congressional flash on my file. This was due to me talking to a member of congress from my district in my city. I asked the va counselor what I should do and if I should keep congress on the case. He said no and not to do anything anymore because I was in the last phase of the whole claims process. Two weeks later I was awarded. So if you are anywhere in your process I would recommend that you talk to your congressman and not only once. Talk to them and stay on them at least once every three weeks.

Don't trust ebenefits to be a fact as I have learned from my experence it never is. Call the RO for information on your claim and never get a congress person involved in your claim unless it is last resort. It stops all claims you have filed untill the investigation by the congress person is complete. I did this and it took two yeaes for the investigation to be complete.
