I am still pretty new, bit thanks so much to everyone here and all of the shared knowledge. I am learning a lot a hopefully it makes the claims proces easier.
I have been trying to get my medical records from service since Februray 2023. I guess it takes a while? Has anyone had any luck getting their medical records from #11 on the SF 180 form, Claims Intake Center? I faxed the form again yesterday. That what the chart says I think for me, USMC 2002-2006.
I thought I read the VA RO could see them if I had started a claim, but I'm not sure how to ask for those.
Thanks!!

Yes. But they may have to have your POA to see those records. Its not bad, tho, you can change it "AT WILL" and there is no cost. Many Veterans enlist a VSO, while mostly handling the claim themsel

"I can go ask a VSO, even if I am not using them to file a claim?" The answer is no. You will have to sign up with the VSO for them to view your records in VBMS. And my advices is chose on a VSO

Also, Indy Sam, you can go "talk" to a VSO, but, they probably will not let you access records until you sign POA over to them. This said, there are many "levels" in which to utilize a VSO, pic
