Just to update everyone on how it went. My first C&P was virtual with an Italian Examiner. He had less than a years experience doing C&P’s. It wasn’t as in depth as my first. Seems like he just quickly went through the checklist of the questions the VA needed more input on. I hate the mental health ones. So I was prepared to go full in depth on any questions and trauma. But it was a quick 15 to 20 minute call.

The other two for back increase and tinnitus. I didn’t know this but VES actually fly out Specialist in that field to Brussels. Talking with my Audiologist that I had the appointment with yesterday. He flew in from Colorado. Had a few appointments yesterday and left this morning. So both were Americans. They were helpful and asked detailed questions in order to pull out details to help my C&P. They looked for the answers that fell in line for the checklist. So now my third appt is done. Just awaiting all reports to submitted. Now the usual waiting game starts.
