Question
Berta
In M21-1MR,Part1,Chapter 5,Section F, there is an Exhibit called the “Certification Worksheet”.
This is a 6 page “sample” worksheet document , with 86 Yes or No questions and someone at the RO has to check off the Y/N boxes and get it signed off prior to any BVA transfer.
Not only is this document ,in my opinion, the key to numerous errors that can occur in processing a claim prior to transfer, the M21-1MR Worksheet sample oddly states right on top :
“(NOTE: Reverse file this document in the center of the claims folder until final BVA disposition.)”
By filing it as reversed,I assume it would therefore not appear in any copy of the claims file that a veteran has requested.
By putting it into the “center” of what can often be a voluminous claims folder, I assume that the ROs don't want anyone to see this document
My question is, has anyone here, who was set for a BVA transfer, ever seen a Certification Worksheet in a copy of their C file?
The Certification Worksheet can be found here under # 31, Exhibit 1:
