I'm hoping some one on this thread might be able to help me, my claim was started December,19th last year. I checked Friday last week on the va.gov it was finally moved into the prep for notifications. I looked today and it's back into the gathering info part AGAIN. I called that 1800 number spoke with a very nice man named Danny, I asked him what is going on. He couldn't (or wouldn't) tell me much except that they mailed me a letter today explaining what's going on, he said that some of my claim has been finished (hence the latter they sent today) and other parts of my claim need more reviewing and he WOULDNT tell me anything more because I haven't received my letter they sent out today, but when I get the letter they sent today they will be happy to go over any thing I need, so my question I guess would be, is this letter they sent out today going to be something bad? Is that why they won't tell me? He said he can see the letter they sent on his screen but can't talk about it? I'm very concerned now about my whole claim. Anybody please give me your 2cents I really am confused now more then ever.
