dismissed CUE

Rate this question


Question

Posted

I was granted my appeal but wish the VA could admit they F@$!ed up. The judge said 2011 they never issued me a SOC to technically my claim was still pending and there is no merit for a CUE claim. Yet they were able to deny my claim again in 2014 and 2015. How did they not even look at what the judge did at the RO, they are my reason my anxiety is a problem now? I really wish i could file a claim for wrongful denials.

Can you give us the Docket #?

Does the BVA decision state these words:

" the
claim is reopened, and to that extent only, the appeal is
granted."

Or does it specifically state what the award is granted for?

Where is this claim now? Do you have a status?

I assume this is still at the RO under a Remand?

I was going to try to move all these post into one post but this poster has 4 different post  all about the same subject matter but diffrent headings, so it would be hard to move his post into one post.

Sorry scatter thoughts they said based on the October 11 2011 Yet to produce a statement of the case it has yet to be final do there could be no CUE claim. I was just mad and b thinking how when they denied it again in 2014 and the dro 2015 no one mentioned this b in there decision. My appeal was for service connection of my tbi. Once I sunmitted the forensic report I had done my appeal moved extremely quick my docket was 15-45 ×××.

It sounds like the judge has given you a hint on how to resubmit the CUE, however, now the VA has to reopen due to new and material evidence and give you the Benefit of the doubt.  You need to make sure:

1.  You get a decision from VARO deny or granting the reopening of said claim.  This would include the issuance of a SOC, if applicable.  

2.  If the reopening decision is unfavorable, then you should appeal it.  

3.  If your benefits are ultimately granted, then you should get an effective date consistent with

38 CFR 3.156.  That is, you should get the effective date of the date of reopening of the claim unless it was reopened within a year of the decision.  If within a year of decision, you should get an effective date back to the begininng of the appeal period.   Finally, you should get the effective date of the date you applied, if it was new service records.  

 

This is not particulary bad news, and may even be good news, in regard to the effective date.  From what you said, this will force VARO to reopen and issue said decision.

    • These decisions have made a big impact on how VA disability claims are handled, giving veterans more chances to get benefits and clearing up important issues.

      Service Connection

      Frost v. Shulkin (2017)
      This case established that for secondary service connection claims, the primary service-connected disability does not need to be service-connected or diagnosed at the time the secondary condition is incurred 1. This allows veterans to potentially receive secondary service connection for conditions that developed before their primary condition was officially service-connected. 

      Saunders v. Wilkie (2018)
      The Federal Circuit ruled that pain alone, without an accompanying diagnosed condition, can constitute a disability for VA compensation purposes if it results in functional impairment 1. This overturned previous precedent that required an underlying pathology for pain to be considered a disability.

      Effective Dates

      Martinez v. McDonough (2023)
      This case dealt with the denial of an earlier effective date for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) 2. It addressed issues around the validity of appeal withdrawals and the consideration of cognitive impairment in such decisions.

    • I met with a VSO today at my VA Hospital who was very knowledgeable and very helpful.  We decided I should submit a few new claims which we did.  He told me that he didn't need copies of my military records that showed my sick call notations related to any of the claims.  He said that the VA now has entire military medical record on file and would find the record(s) in their own file.  It seemed odd to me as my service dates back to  1981 and spans 34 years through my retirement in 2015.  It sure seemed to make more sense for me to give him copies of my military medical record pages that document the injuries as I'd already had them with me.  He didn't want my copies.  Anyone have any information on this.  Much thanks in advance.

    • Caluza Triangle defines what is necessary for service connection
      Caluza Triangle – Caluza vs Brown defined what is necessary for service connection. See COVA– CALUZA V. BROWN–TOTAL RECALL

      This has to be MEDICALLY Documented in your records:

      Current Diagnosis.   (No diagnosis, no Service Connection.)

      In-Service Event or Aggravation.
      Nexus (link- cause and effect- connection) or Doctor’s Statement close to: “The Veteran’s (current diagnosis) is at least as likely due to x Event in military service”
