Uploaded documents history

[Rivet62]

This isn't a question. It's a suggestion for claims filers.

Yesterday, when I went on VA.gov to check my claim status, it showed a nice list of everything I had uploaded for my TDIU claim/increases.  The trouble started when I saw Request 1 and Request 5 and Request 4 all changing on a weekly basis and all with due dates, BUT none of them specified what they wanted me to upload. I made sure to call Peggy and they couldn't see what was wanted.  So to cover myself, I uploaded word documents stating that the request(?) lacks descriptions, and I named the file uploads as Lacks_description_of_what_is_wanted.docx.  I would return to VA.GOV to check my claim status, and I would notice these as pending and then they would disappear and be replaced with another no-description request and so on.

I got the idea that I better copy and paste what I'm looking at, including the list of all the supporting documents I uploaded.  Yesterday's list states everything I uploaded, true to the names I had given the files. Today's list does not!  Well, to be fair, many of my uploads were simply supporting documents in place of the forms I couldn't get from my past employers.

I would suggest that vets keep checking the files that VA acknowledges, and copy and past the list into a Word document and save it according to what date is shown. 

I know that when you 'print' a webpage to PDF that you can set the preference of having a time stamp and source (the url) display at the bottom and print with the PDF you're creating.
