BVA Appeal with VLJ

[lmorris08]

My appeal was received by BVA on 11/20/2015.  Latest progress shows VLJ since 01/14/2016.  Any idea on timeframe for a 

decision.  There are six appeals combined with ten contentions going back to 2009.  Is decision likely in weeks, months or years?

Please weigh in..

If we knew your "docket date", we can tell you more.  If you have a 2015 Docket date, then what are you doing in, say, Fall of 2018, or Spring of 2019?  

However, if you have a 2009 docket date, then you could get a decision in the next few weeks.

Broncovet,

.  Thank you for your informative response.  I stand corrected...NOD dates back to 2009.  Docket numbers range from 1216XXX to 1507XXX... I am hopeful that wait time at this point is weeks  instead of years. I am very grateful for having hadit.com as a resource to research and read to gain information. 

    I am hopeful for a favorable decision at best, remand worse case.  Hope VLJ gives supporting medical evidence a good look.
