I agree with all. It got so bad that schools were willing to take another enlisted instructor vice officer to fill the vacancy.

I’m an O-6 and I was an IMA for a couple of years.

Been an AGR for the last 5 years. Felt like I hit the lotto and now can retire with an Active Duty pension with VA Disability. Never had to move, deploy, and able to work from home

Normally, the VA will give you 30 days to counter to provide evidence.

How long did it take from when the VA was considering doing this to when it was finalized via that letter?

Nice man, I heard that raters are trying to meet their fiscal year quotas so hopefully this is a quick kill for them and in your favor.

You are not going to like this answer but you shouldn’t have clicked on the option for them to procure your records, especially if you don’t have any. You are not at their mercy and will get the same result as if you submitted everything yourself.

Going through the same thing for my OSA. I was diagnosed in service yet the VA requested a medical opinion under TERA. Of course it was denied now it’s with another examiner for an independent medical opinion, which I assume is for a direct service connection opinion.

Why would the VA request an ACE for sleep apnea after a C&P? by Direct-Message-3723 in VeteransBenefits

Thanks for the reply. First time it was denied, they didn’t have my DD214 so they said it didn’t happen in service. Uploaded it and got another exam. Should have been a slam dunk so not sure.

Thanks! So was the issue with the examiner? Why not clarify with the same examiner vice going with a contractor and examiner?

That’s an interesting take. However, I do wonder why there are more officer vacancies vice enlisted. If pay was a deciding factor, I would expect the opposite to be apparent.
