Understanding how to service connect your condition(s) goes a long way towards reaching the 100% VA disability rating that many veterans deserve.

ANOTHER EXCELLENT VIDEO FROM VACLAIMSINSIDER AKA (THE ALL-MADDEN TEAM) THE BEST COMPANY IN THE VA CLAIMS PROCESS HANDS DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What do you recommend for a situation similar to this: Low-balled ratings (MH 30%, back/knees), appealed, no additional C&P exams- nothing, sent Veteran letter saying would be adjudicated at a later date, 13 months later SOC appears in C-file (copy of previous decision). Veteran notified of SOC after claim for increase (granted) years later?
It sounds like the VA issued a Statement of the Case (SOC) without properly notifying the Veteran, which unfortunately happens more often than it should. Since the SOC was essentially a copy of the previous decision and no additional C&P exams were ordered, it’s possible the VA didn’t fully reconsider the appeal before closing it out.
Now that a claim for increase has been granted, the best path forward depends on the specifics of the situation. If there’s a chance to challenge the original SOC due to procedural errors (like lack of proper notification), options such as a CUE (Clear and Unmistakable Error) claim or exploring whether the appeal remained open due to VA inaction might be worth considering. If the goal is to maximize ratings based on current conditions, a strategy focused on secondary conditions, worsening symptoms, or potential gaps in the initial decision could be the best route.
This situation is complex, but there are ways to navigate it effectively. Reviewing the timeline and key details carefully will help determine the strongest approach moving forward.
@VAClaimsInsider Is there an email address that I could address additional information to someone for further quidance on this matter? This has turned into a chess game with the VBA. I file for one thing, they make it about something else. I'm fairly educated on things, but the VA hamster wheel has me stumped on this one.

How much does coach cost?
Our terms are simple: If we don’t win, you don’t pay!
Instead of charging Veterans thousands of dollars to access our proprietary resources up-front, we decided to make these resources FREELY available to those who join our membership programs, and you only pay AFTER you win your VA disability claim AND get a higher VA rating.
If you don’t win your claim and get a higher rating, you don’t owe us a penny.
If you do win and get a higher rating, the VA Claims Insider Elite cost is six times (6x) the monthly increase.
For example, if your VA rating before utilizing our services is 50% at $1,000 per month, and your rating after utilizing our services is 90% at $2,000 per month, your membership fee would be 6x the monthly increase, or ($2,000-$1,000) = ($1,000 x 6) = $6,000.
In this example, if the lump sum option is selected, the total owed would be $6,000-$600 (10% discount) = $5,400.
You can also choose our no-interest monthly payment plan, which in this example, would be $500 per month for 12 months at no interest.

They treated me really badly
We hear you-dealing with the VA can be frustrating, and it’s tough when it feels like you’re not being treated fairly. The good news is, you don’t have to go through it alone. There are ways to push back, get the right evidence in front of them, and make sure your claim gets the attention it deserves.
If you’re running into roadblocks, there are strategies to keep things moving in the right direction. Sometimes, it’s just about knowing how to work the system to get the results you’ve earned.
You’ve got this, and we’re here to provide the guidance to make sure you get the rating and benefits you deserve!
