Filed Supplemental and seems stuck.
I filed a Supplemental Claim on August 6th. When submitting my claim, I accidentally selected the option that authorized the VA to obtain medical records from my private physician. After receiving a letter requesting that I complete the authorization forms, I contacted the VA and uploaded a statement explaining that this selection was made in error. I requested that the VA proceed with adjudicating my claim based on the evidence already submitted and that no additional medical records were needed from my private doctors.
Despite this clarification, my claim remains in the development phase and shows a status of "reviewing documents." I am concerned that the claim may be delayed due to the mistaken records request. Any raters on here that can answer my question? Thanks
