krbkwb02 Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Hey all, they told me today that I am in final review. I have been waiting on a request to correct an error in a ratings decision and relooking an old issue that according to Title 38 I should have been granted way back in 2000. How much longer should it take and I was always under the impression that a final review means large retro? Anyone know? Thanks all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berta Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 (edited) A final review means nothing regarding any potential positive outcome of your claim- I suggest when you call 800# ask them what the COVERS screen shows or send them an Inquery via the VA web site- Then again- there may be nothing they can add at this point- It sounds to me like you sent in a CUE claim on a past decision? Or you questioned a error in a DC or rating percentage in an active claim that you re-opened? I have what you could say 'final review' with VARO activity throughout Jan 2006.The claim had been there for 3 years. Then on July 14th I got letter that said my claim was sent to the BVA! So much for the Review-they ddnt read any of my evidence AGAIN- I was stunned and requested an immediate Remand from the BVA- I contacted the BVA myself--violations of VA rights as a claimant- Apparently per the BVA email I got yesterday =my was claim was remanded on Friday- and I await confirmation and now my medical evidence will finally be read.
