I have recieved NOTHING!! every time I call the v.a. they give me a different answer. and get this....me and my bank have to get assured bonded for 200,000 each!! I called a bond place 1800.00 for both bonds. my bank and the bonding people have ever heard of this bonding shit. my PTSD claim will hit its 8 year mark this April.

Seems someone is missing the boat here. My understanding is you have an attorney. Why on earth would you be running around behind his back closing out claims at the BVA without input from him? When you seek advice here, be sure you provide all the necessary information to the folks who are going to opine on your situation. Even then, when represented, you should be contacting him and discussing the advice proffered rather than taking unilateral action that may irreparably harm your a) claims, b) standing and c) order of docketing. If you close out a claim at the BVA, there is no going back and saying "Shoot, the guy on Hadit told me to pull the plug but now I see what's up. Please reinstate the appeal." The BVA will politely tell you to make a u-turn to the VARO and refile it again. That can mean another 4 year delay-if, and only if- you have new and material evidence available to submit to reopen it.

Claims are volatile and require a lot of thought. Think long and hard before you ever hit delete. Hell, for that matter, think long and hard about any filing with the VA. You hired an attorney(I presume). Why try to micromanage something you are unfamiliar with?

Onwards through the VA Fog.
