I was granted smc k, an auto allowance, & loss of use of left hand. Now I filed another claim at the same time as this one & it was a supplemental for my tdiu claim. In the letter for my claim increase it says tdiu is deferred for medical opinion. Did they combine my claim increase & my supplemental claim? Also is a c&p examination not a medical opinion. My claim increase is also still at evidence gathering instead of closed. The lady at IRIS didn't understand why that was. Just trying to understand what the va is doing. Any opinions will be greatly appreciated thanks.

Also sometimes the examiner does not ask the correct questions or provide the information initially requested by the VARO rater and therefore a new exam is ordered at the inconvenience to the vet. Kn
