Appeals Process In A Nutshell

[bluevet]

The following link is to an illustrative report outlining the VA appeals process changes that we have been seeing over the past couple of years. From what I can tell, it was written in 2014 some time. I looked around on the forums and didn't see it. If it's already available on the site somewhere, I apologize, but it's such a valuable resource for helping to understand how the entire appeals process works (complete with diagrams), that I wanted to make sure it's available. Feel free to delete it if it's already here somewhere. Thanks

Thank you. Iam so thankful I found this site today. I am new to the process, having been originally denied in 2003, I refiled last November and VA reopened the 2003 claim. Got a boilerplate denial in April of this year (not one of the four reasons for denial are true) and have now filed the NOD. Will be searching the site for guidance on a successful appeal.
