I recently (October 2018) made my first claim and was examined and rated @ 10% for Tinnitus. Immediately afterwards, I received a letter from the VA stating that they had made an appointment for me for back pain that was from a claim in March of 2000. (I left the USAF in January, 2000). This is the result of that C&P exam.
I was also sent a letter about foot pain that I had claimed in 2000. I ended up filling out more paperwork to explain condition, and sending in medical records from private doctors. I believe that they combined the foot pain, and the back pain into one claim.
I cannot see anything on eBenefits regarding the status these claims since they are so old (that's what they told me).
I am also soliciting opinions as to what the effective date for these claims would be.
Please let me know what you think regarding this DBQ from a C&P exam:
