Hi. My supplemental claim was denied based on lack of service connection, but the primary reason used for denial was a statement from the reviewer that I stated the issue started 2 years ago to the VA doctor. This is not true, and VA doctor notes state something else entirely. She wrote that it is a "longstanding issue" that has gotten worse in the past year. That's not exactly what I told the doc but I can't change doctors notes. I am planning on filing a 20-0966 for higher level review to talk with someone to dispute what was stated in my denial letter. I know no new evidence can be submitted which is fine, but I assume I can reference the existing evidence in my appeal? Also, my VSO wants me to fill out a separate statement on a form 20-4138, I don't want to keep stating the same things I have already written previously so I'm asking if you all have any suggestions on how to approach this? Thanks.
