Question
Navyguy2013
I just got notification of a C&P exam I have been waiting on since 2013.
It is scheduled in a different state from where I live. Driving time to this location is just under 4 hours.
That's one way, round trip driving is about 8 hours. We have plenty of medical and VA locations much closer that that to me.
Is this normal for C&P exams?

You can call 1-800# and request the C&P nearest to your Home but you need to do this at least 7 days before your schedule C&P, IF you don't contact them I would suggest you go to this C&P

I had the same issue its because your regional office is over booked and to get you a decision they pay your mileage to drive crazy far to get you an appointment sooner. That's how it was explained to

The locations nearer to you may not have the capacity or the doctors required to complete your examinations. The scheduled facility is determined by an algorithm that picks the closest facility to you
