0 Hucast21 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Can’t tell if it’s good or bad, but it’s great that your claim is moving along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Moderator broncovet Posted January 30, 2021 Moderator Share Posted January 30, 2021 Its good. "Time" is Vets enemy. Many thousands of Veterans pass away before their claim is completed. When this happens, "UNLESS" the spouse or heir KNOWS to promptly file a substitution of claimant, the claim dies. Other Veterans become too old and sick to persue their claims. Thus, there is significant financial incentive for VA to delay your claim as long as possible. "Even if its quickly denied", you can begin to appeal. Many Vets, including myself have been delayed for decades. The bus may not go "all the way", but at least its traveling in your direction now.

0 rfkoshka Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 My observation is that the Va seems to move a bit faster on iu claims in general. I’m new to the system, so I could be wrong, but it makes sense since that initial claims have a higher bar. The iu supplemental has a high bar as well, but at least they’ve already “presumed” (their word presumptive) that the disability is service connected. it is not a given, of course, by a long shot But it does seem at least to move faster. Yours was very fast, my iu was filed on nov 10 and c&p was on 18 December. Not too shabby. If it sails, I suspect a decision by Apr or May. But...that could very well be a denial as well! good luck to you, watch the anxiety levels. They tend to rise appreciably at this point!
