0 bigbetty3id Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Wandere I went to my local VARO and put in for a copy for my C-File and I requested it just like this. I John Doe hereby request a copy of all documents contained in Mr. Doe claims folder, including, but not limited to, all documents in the right flap, left flap, and center flap, and the reverse side of any documents with writing on both sides. To my surprise it took 2 months to get and requesting my C-File like this I found 9,000 more documents that I have never seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Wanderer Posted April 18, 2019 Author Share Posted April 18, 2019 Thank you for the language. So, my VARO will tell me who to address it to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 HadIt.com Elder Buck52 Posted April 18, 2019 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted April 18, 2019 Request it at least 2 times from the two addresses from the above members, that way you get a double whammy so-to-speak... Also Email this lady let her know you sent in a request for your C-file and heard that she can help you get it somewhat faster.

A claims file request made by the veteran is legally designated as a Privacy Act request, not a FOIA request.
