Cue Experts

Could not afford IMO to support claim.

Subsequent claim denied without C&P exam.

Can they make a decision without any medical

evidence or do they have to provide a C&P

exam. Deadline for NOD has passed.

Did they send you a proper VCAA Notice telling you what you needed to send them to support your claim?

If they denied without sending one, perhaps you could use that to re-open -in spite of fact that the NOD time has passed.

Can you tell us what the claim was for and how they worded the denial?

Did your medical records and/or SMRs fully support the claim?

Did you have a current diagnosis and current treatment records?

Something seems wrong here- not to get a C & P.

phubai70, You have not been around for a while. E-mail me at terrys5069@charter.net. Seems like you said you live in GR. We should get together for lunch. Terry Sturgis

As to question of CUE.

Providing a C&P exam falls under Duty to Assist.

Failure in Duty to Assist does not provide a basis for CUE,

under CUE guidelines.

Cue is based on statutory and regulatory error of law

and failure to follow schedule of disability ratings.

JMHO,
