Question

New to the board, question about action after NOD received. My NOD was received two months ago but no appeal has been opened. Is this normal for a regional office to delay opening an appeal? Thanks in advance for responses.

"Is this normal for a regional office to delay opening an appeal?"

It is normal for a NOD to sit in a stack for a long time.

Someone at my RO told me they color code NODs with tabs and don't work on them until the color of tab indicates a year has passed. I don't know if that is true but nothing much happens for months after you file a NOD in many cases.

They gave you the exact reasons for denial so now is the time to get the ducks in a row with whatever they said was lacking in the claim.
