justrluk Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Good Morning! Am I correct in assuming that the effective date of an item on appeal would be the date the VARO received the appeal? Or, is it the date of the original decision? I'm trying to find this but just can't seem to.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder Philip Rogers Posted October 30, 2013 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted October 30, 2013 If the claim has been under continuous prosecution, it would be the date of the original claim. If you've missed a deadline it would be the date that the appeal is filed. pr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justrluk Posted October 30, 2013 Author Share Posted October 30, 2013 Thanks, PR. I believe I filed the original after an interim request for increase, but I'd have to look back at the records. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justrluk Posted October 31, 2013 Author Share Posted October 31, 2013 Just another question: I received a note that my remanded GERD appeal was now with a DRO and that the other two issues on appeal were only added to the database in August. No action taken yet on these, yet these are the bigger issues on deck. Does it make sense that the VARO would actually try to resolve the low-hanging fruit before triggering the larger, more complex issues? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justrluk Posted October 31, 2013 Author Share Posted October 31, 2013 Also, the reason I asked the initial question is that the Psoriatic Arthritis claim was initiated 9 years ago. My initial ratings are only 8 months out from hitting the 10 year mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No action taken yet on these, yet these are the bigger issues on deck. Does it make sense that the VARO would actually try to resolve the low-hanging fruit before triggering the larger, more complex issues? First of all, nothing the VA does makes sense. It is likely "to me" that he VA would decide the earlier claim first, as each is a separate claim in itself. jmo pr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good Morning!
