    VA rating timeline

    I completed my VA exams in October and went to PEB 1 Dec 2021. It’s been over 100 days and they are still pending with the VA… I’ve heard they are “required” to be completed in under 90 days. Any advice on this?

    Would highlighting relevant diagnoses and injuries in my Med Records help my VA Claim?

    Would using a highlighter to highlight relevant diagnoses and injuries in my MIL med records and bringing it to my C&P Exams be a good idea? Would it be helpful to the person/doctor/NP to find the relevant info faster for my claim?
