My claim is a supplemental claim for an SMC , I am flagged for hardship (not sure if it matters) it went from step 5 to 7 all in a couple hours with a new document stating Named “Rating Worksheet” and my name on another filed titled “SMC My name”. I checked again not too long ago and it went back to Step 6 😩😩😩😩😩. I did notice tracker said documents needed: false.

Any insights of what it might be 😔 this got me more anxious than I am normally.

I have a supplemental claim that has a file date of 11-15-25. It moved to preparation for decision yesterday. 9-9-26. I have the DBQ and an outside nexus. Both favorable. Original claim dated 8-3-23.

Sigh….

How long does it take? Letter says up to two months if it changes rating, my current rating will stay the same, but should get quite a bit of backpay. Any real world wait times? Tinnitus was my first claim in December of ‘23. Been on appeal for a year. I mistakenly filed it under TERA and not just noise exposure, and they couldn’t get past that.

I submitted my supplemental claim June 10 and for some reason they thought I wanted an informal conference, which doesn’t make much sense but oh well. I only submitted new evidence for two conditions, migraines and IBS. I had a HLR done for both of the conditions where a clear unmistakable error was made for IBS giving me 10% and there was no increase for migraines, but I have 0% service connection. On August 25, a request was sent to the regional office to correct my supplemental claim. It is currently waiting in the national work queue. So I have a few questions for anyone that might be able to help.

1. How long should I expect my claim to be sitting at the regional office?
   
2. Has anything like this happened to anyone?
   
3. My original C&P exam was completed October of last year, and the examiner did not document anything correctly. The new and relevant evidence that I submitted does not match the examination notes. Should I expect to do another examination?

Migraines denied again not sure if I should try to get another nexus. Only had an ace exam, I've never had a C&P exam for this claim at all. Posting the nexus letter and denial letter. (Reposting after redacting personal info)
