Okay I may be a fortunate son exception but for the past 3 or more years the VA.GOV website has been extremely helpful, accurate and timely in notifying me correctly of both my VARO claims and BVA appeals grants for various major claims and medical disabilities ratings and just like the BVA. I say this because there is a constant bashing and dismissing of the VA.GOV website by other vets on other forums and advisors that is so misleading to vets. I trust the mods will notice I did not mention any forum or vet names so there can be no basis for a defamation lawsuit. Shish. And yes, some human person is inputting this information into the system/VA.GOV website.
Of course your mileage may vary.
After VA.GOV posted a grant of my claims/appeals I then received in the mail about 11 days later the actual paper decisions (very quick). Over the years both VARO and BVA adjudicators has learned that I submit clearly defined claims with substantial amount of evidence to support my contentions in a well-organized and logical manner. Self taught successful vet here and I like to pass on my positive methods here to others where APPROPRIATE!!!! According to thankful replies I have helped more than a few vets on this and other forums that is very rewarding to me. No misinformation or censorship by me.
This comment is not legal advice as I am not a lawyer, paralegal or tiny v s o.
