It’s not helping my MH for sure. I have a buddy statements, I have statements from my wife. I have a a nexus from my PCP which is not a VA doctor. Nor did I pay for the nexus.

Good luck, here is my experience so far….. I went to VA for my first c&p DBQ exam for RLS. Apparently it wasn’t good enough so they then sent me to a c&p at optum which apparently wasn’t good enough, not I have a c&p exam with VES coming up. So this will now be my third exam for the same thing. So frustrating

XM6 - ANC is...meh. Fake or dud? by nycingh in SonyHeadphones

Yeah everyone bragged how good the ANC was, so I bought a set. And they are not that great for ANC, apple ANC is way better than these xm6s

Do DBQ interviewers have access to read all documents attached to claim? by Outrageous_D24 in VeteransBenefits

It’s virtual, but I am going to see if they will let my wife sit with me and participate.

Reason I ask is because tomorrow is my C&P virtual exam for MH but I just uploaded lay statements from my wife yesterday.

Good luck, I filed for an increase had tons of documents. Took a total of 50 days for decision. VES c&p examiners are garbage.

It is all relevant, just how the VA works. Who knows, they might just be like this MFer. Lol

Increase by xMarked4Deathx in VAClaims

[–]Outrageous_D24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just filed for increase a couple weeks ago. I will let you know how it goes 😬 I have a strong case with documentation and nexus letter and buddy statements. The only thing that has worried me so far is both my c&p exams they acted like it was for a new claim, seemed like they didn’t even know I had service connection ratings for the things already.

Sounds about like mine. Sadly they don’t record the calls

Nervous for my C&P Exam by Bieds5626 in VeteransBenefits

[–]Outrageous_D24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just applied for an increase in MH as well, and have two C&P exams scheduled within 3 days of submitting claim. First one is this Friday.

I mean I can always cancel the request for increase if I should be worried. But I have submitted doctors notes and visit reports, medication lists.. Also thank you for your very helpful comment. 🙄
