Got this letter in the mail today dated March 25, 2022.
Notice: There May Have Been a Delay in Receipt of Mailed Correspondence
To whom it may Concern,
You may experience a delay in receipt of correspondence from the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).
What Happened
VA experienced delays in printing and mailing correspondence to Veterans and claimants due to supply chain and staffing shortages from our vendors.
How This May Have Affected You
From July 13, 2021, through December 31, 2021, correspondence may not have been received timely. This includes information needed to pursue a benefit or notification of a decision, which may require a time-sensitive response. Veterans Benefit Administration extended the initial response period afforded in the letter by 90 days when a proposed action may have resulted in a denial, reduction, or termination of benefits. Unless you waived your right to respond or sent the requested evidence or information, you qualified for this extension.
This notice applies to impacted correspondence sent from the Veterans Benefit Administration related to your disability compensation and pension benefits, decision, reviews, and/or services related to the Veteran Readiness and Employee program dated July 13, 2021, through December 31, 2021.
If you believe you should have received a letter but did not, please contact the VA at 1-800-827-1000.
