Ronc531 Is this normal? For the VA, yes. It is a good example of why we caution people about ebennies. In accurate, out dated, incomplete, incorrect way too often. Some clerk made an entry error. Call Peggy and ask them; plead ignorant and see what they say. When they admit the error, ask Peggy who/what should be done to correct it.

Do you have a VSO that might have started a claim on your behalf?

I have also had Peggy start an ITF when I called them before. If you had called in the past and had mentioned something to them they mave have started it thinking you were going to file a claim.

I notice back when I file a claim electronically I hit the submit button 5 times (by mistake)  and they said I had five ITF 's I Made a correction on 4 of the ITF's and they took them off  but it too a couple days before they removed them off  my application.

Thanks, i haven't called anyone, that's why it seemed strange. Then my wife saw that you are only aloud to do this once in your lifetime.
