Question
K9MAL
I have a DRO hearing on the 6th. I've read a few different things online but was wondering who else might have some input? Just curious, do you argue your case or just present facts? Is it a back and forth type conversation or just cut & dry? What's it like?
Do you lead off with questions? As an example: Why was my increase denied? What evidence do I need to prove my claim?
Or, do you just lay out the evidence that contradicts their "reasons and bases" for denial and call it a day? Are they typically pro-veteran and understanding or can I expect to have my blood pressure rise?
Happy New Year!

As long as this claim is alive you can pursue the earlier effective date via the evidence (controversy). The evidence of record shows entitlement began in 2000. Effective date has to be 2002 filing.
