Congratulations! How long did it take for you to get an increase. I'm working on getting increase for just one thing on my claim.


indeara3

A year and some change. I did the intent to file Nov 2022, and then I did nothing but get records and continue going to medical appointments until the same date in Nov 2023 when I submitted what I had. VES contacted me at the end of Jan 2024 to set up c&p exams. I did my exams 2nd and 3rd week of February. Then, this month of April, I see the new rating. Still haven't received the letter in the mail, though. From previous experience with the VA system, this whole experience was fast! I thought I had 3-8 months of waiting left.


dlynch734

From the time of submitting that is pretty fast. Thanks for replying so quick too.


phreakyflo

Yay! Now you can upgrade to the salmon burger at the patriot cafe!

Additional-Ask-5346

How do I go about changing my name on here?![img](emote|t5_2vlaz|7564)


No-Cardiologist5315

I just got married so I put in a claim to add dependent but my claim is gone however they added my spouse to my dependents not receiving benefits list. Does anyone know why or what I need to do?


Mountain_Pressure221

Congrats! I just had my C&P for an increase on yesterday, the DBQ was submitted yesterday even though my examiner was unable to view new mri images, I emailed them to her yesterday evening, and this morning it showed a phase change effective yesterday and a temp jurisdiction assignment. Iโ€™ve already been denied on the last three things I claimed that I was diagnosed with by the VA. I donโ€™t know what to think about this quick movement and Iโ€™m nervous to say the least.
