DevilDog12 Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 This may be a dumb question, and I know I shouldn't rely on EBenefits, but if my claim is in Prep for Notification, should the AB8 letter have changed if claim was granted? Or does it update only after completion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 DevilDog12 Posted March 18, 2016 Author Share Posted March 18, 2016 On Monday, 3/14, my claim went into Prep for Notification, then the next day, back to Pending Decision Approval. I kept off of Ebenefits until today, and it still says Pending Decision Approval. I was told before that this phase means it is just waiting a signature. If that's the case, how long does it take to sign something? Or was I told wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 green Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 DevilDog, my claim went from gathering evidence to prep for notification and back 8 times in a 30 day period. It's okay to look at eBenefits but you need to understand the information is lacking and not indicative of the true status. Oh, btw, my FDC is at day 240 and I'm in Prep for Decision *L* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Navy4life Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I have been in PFD over a month now and I too have an FDC claim but I know why my FDC claim is idle....it's because I had my DRO review hearing last month and the FDC won't move forward until after the decision comes from the DRO hearing.... I hope you hear something soon DevilDog! flores97 and DevilDog12 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 DevilDog12 Posted March 23, 2016 Author Share Posted March 23, 2016 I hope so too! It's already passed the VA's "estimated" date of completion. Maybe one day this week. I hope you get good news very soon too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good question. You already know the status in ebenefits can lag behind reality. When I was in waiting mode, I did this: 1. Got a hobby to get my mind off of it. Fishing, video games, movies,

Not just ebenefits, but in having to deal with the VA as a whole

Thanks for the insight, however it moved back to Pending Decision Approval. We should all be service connected from the stress of EBenefits!
