Greetings Hadit Family,

So I have decided to do a HLR. I am suppose to see a VA rep next Friday and hopefully I can submit the paperwork directly instead of mailing or faxing and waiting for the intake center to process it. Wish me luck

Has anyone tried to file a new claim in VA.gov ? I have tried a couple of times and I get a error message.

Not I

But you can file a new claim or claim for increase on E Benefits.

After you push the send button  they let you know they received your claim application.

I filed most of my claims on E benefits  and they send you a confirmation to let you know they got it and mention they will be asking for more information   ect,,,ect,,,

I tried in Ebenefits and VA.gov no bueno. It ask me the questions I push the button to open the claim "error"

If in the IME/IMO there is not a sentence that says, 

In preparation of this document I have reviewed the Veterans entire VA Claims File.

The VA has the ability to discount the entire document.  In order to establish that their opinion is credible the above sentence must be in there!  This has been upheld in Court . 

It's nit right, it just is.

@Hyrb I am tracking with that. I am challenging the VA exam anyway. This is the reason I went out and had the IMO done because of my Aug 2018 exam. That doctor did not have access to my c-file nor did he perform the examination IAW regulations. So, I think this was my best course of action to try and win this thing. If you read the letter which has since been changed, I have added more details about the decisions resulting from this exam. As of recent I have sent in the 20-0996 HLR and submitted my letter challenging the exam. There are some statements in the letter that will allow VA to ask or me to offer information which is my plan. I have some evidence that I know they need (only because I sited it in the letter), which I have in my possession or they could say because I challenged exam and made a valuable argument to the facts of this exam they don't need this info (but I want them to have all they need to make the right decision).
