Question
SPO
I recently submitted a higher level review and was wondering if anyone has had good luck with them. My basis for doing higher level review was 2 sided. One, I was denied for no diagnosis, when both my doctor and a medical opinion the VA requested confirmed diagnosis and nexus. However, the C&P examiner did not agree with the diagnosis, but provided no supporting information. Second, I am at about 9-10 months waiting to for my C-file to properly put a supplemental claim together, so even if I get denied higher level, it buys me some more to time to develop a good supplemental claim with my doctors input. I am working on just some information the DAV was willing to relay to me about my file, I still haven't seen everything. Thoughts?

SPO, what I would try is go to the RO and ask them what they can tell you about disclosing what the "new" evidence is. The VA does have a duty to assist, but I assume your next move will be supplement

SPO I think you have a good idea. If you expect that your c file will have even more evidence, extending the EED is a good strategy. I also suspect that if you are correct that the VA examiner didn't
