rootbeer22 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 (edited) Folks: Ny guess is that once the claims backlog goes down, that there will be a "big push" to get appeals resolved quicker as well. Anything that is done, now affects everything down stream. I'd like to see them (BVA) set up National Video Conference Reviews, with a waiver process that puts the process back into the Vets hands....so..if a Vet wants to forgoe a lot of the formalities and expedite the process....like national type DRO's ..that they can elect do so.....kinda like a BVA "peoples court"...where things get done quickly....with limited formaility...I'm sure a lot of vets will go for this....

Fat Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 The waiting game......... My buddy filed a NOD (de novo review) in August 2013. He is still pending a decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flores97 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 BEVB, I don't know if you are within driving distance if your RO, but keep in mind you can always walk in to the Regional Office and talk to yhem about your claims. I walked into my RO to talk to them in regards to my BVA Appeal, about 9 months after it was certified to the Board, and they scheduled my video hearing on the spot. Bear in mind that at that point i had already waited almost five years, but going in person can't hurt....it pays to be proactive. I wish you luck and hope this helps.
