Gathering Evidence Ebenifits (need document) status?

[fiasco2g]

Hello. My status shows that I need to turn in a VA Form 21-4142a for my vet center records so I uploaded it. It says I have like 30 days and the status shows awaiting review. I already uploaded all my current vet center records so why should I be delayed so they can request them? Can I just contact them through iris to see if they can skip this step since I have uploaded my vet center file when I filed my FDC?

Also will the status remain as gathering evidence until exams are scheduled and completed? I wish they just had a little more detail on each step.

Do not want to be held up until 9/28 just so they can request a record I already uploaded. Thanks.

Does anyone know if I can get a c&p exam if I click the request a decision button? I just want them to know I have no more uploads and they can continue on without waiting the full thirty days for document uploads. I thought fdc meant fully developed. But i still want exams.

You could push the ''decide my claim now''  And you have no further evidence to submit.

 if a C&P is warranted  the VA will let you know.

I know nothing about your claim, only from your post above.

This is just my opinion
