According to AFGE, yes. Of course, I trust AFGE "just a little less" than I trust VA...which is none. However, there may be some truth to what AFGE says about this:

In part:
End of AFGE article quote.
Now THIS makes sense. If the employee working your claim can not complete it in 27 minutes, let's penalize the Veteran and delay his claim at least 30 more days.
It gets better. This has to promote "top sheeting" where VA does not read all your evidence and just denies it. Ok, so a 30 day delay is parlayed into 5 year delay in appeals backlog.
Who is this good for? Certainly not Veterans.
