Higher Level Review info

When a Higher Level Review is submitted does it show up on ebenefit or va.gov?

It will show up as a claim even though its a higher level review in ebenefits.

Mine only shows on VA.gov

I submitted mine last month. It took a couple of weeks to show up on both ebenefits and va.gov. However, when I tried to initially open it on ebenefits, it said that I needed to go over to va.gov. Once there, I was able to view the status.

I stand corrected, mine only showed up in VA.gov...sorry for the mistake.

Did yours say processing times was 4 - 5 months? Under the old system (which I have one pending) it say 23 - 24 months.

@paulstrgn Initially, it said the estimated date of completion was sometime in March 2020. I normally check the status on Fridays, but am actually kind of glad I checked it today. Here's what it shows:

I'm actually quite impressed with the change. That's a huge difference in turnaround time.

The fact that the change occurred yesterday and the estimated completion date is only just a couple of weeks away is kind of like receiving a non-monetary birthday present from the VA. Just hope they see the obvious and grant both issues.
