The Management Center in Washington D. C. has told me over the telephone that they were expecting any old medical records of mine to be in their office the week of the 2nd of September. I called yesterday and one of the counselors told me that she hoped that they were faxed to them this week.
The BVA has ask for a search for old medical records to see if there are any out there that are not in my file.
This would be because in 2004, I turned in all of my psychiatric records and a letter from my commanding officer, to which the VA had never seen.
I filed my first claim in 1978 and the only reply of decision was a letter that stated " you are not service connected." I did not receive any statement of the case or any other papers.
When I refiled in 2002, they still did not get these records and now The BVA wants a search to make sure that they are not others out there, that they may have not secured.
I contacted the St. Louis Archives yesterday and was told that The Management Center had not requested any medical records or anything on me.
Is there anywhere else that old records may be stored?
Now, I don't know whether to believe The Management Center, that they are due in the 2nd. Is it possible that they typed on my VCAA notice that they had sent for them and did not do it.
