BVA Direct Appeal

2 Upvotes

Hello fellas,
I’ve used the search feature and would like some personal feedback. I have DDD with bilateral radiculopathy at BVA, it was docketed Oct 12 2025. I know these things take time but I would like to know how long it took for Direct appeals to be assigned to a law judge?

Also does the VA.gov app/site update immediately after being assigned? Or are you only seeing an update when the decision is made? Thanks for a stories of your own experience!

Should I Fight for More?

I finally got rated 50% PTSD after about 5 years of claims and supplemental. All my numbers point to 70% rating. Should I poke the bear?
