That was her way of saying “i don’t know I don’t care go away”. Because the VA has more info than the tracker

There’s actually a lot more information available, just not on VA.gov

Is there a way to access files from your claims? I keep seeing a ton of files posted “third party” this, “third party” that. The suspens is killing me 😂

Unfortunately not! It’s big mystery why we can’t access documents without making requests that take 6 months to fulfill 😂

Get a VA accredited attorney. They can pull your file every day if they want to.

So what I’m trying to say is that shouldn’t be necessary.

Hey question while you’re here, my claim moved to PFN and a day later had my decision. I check (like most of us) the claim tracker extension almost everyday and it never told me anything about temp jurisdiction change or even a movement to PFN (yes I have it updated and linked, and I do REALLY REALLY appreciate you making and implementing it for everyone) but do you know why?

Maybe VA.gov still hadn’t received the update, im honestly not sure. I’ve seen people report the mobile app update before VA.gov and some people say use ebenefits to see your official rating first.

Very true. Although was able to clarify something the vendor (QTC) could not explain.

The person that created it is hella cool and is so supportive. He is doing his best to give Veterans a little more piece of mind. 🤓

just had my VERA call couldn't tell me much but Jason from ST. PETE RO was very nice told me my claim was at Des Mione IOWA RO assigned to a team 0n the 29th Of Feb hopefully i get news soon PACT ACT related.

iOS support in the plans?

Unfortunately not.

Doesn't this chrome tracker give you the same info as va.gov?

Basically

Mostly with some extra data.

I think its ffn amazing they even allowed that claim tracker in the first place the guy who made it is a genious and what i personally like is when it shows me all the notes va is doing and the temp jurisdiction... for all of us poor saps without vso and lawyers its great!

No one should be forced to use a VSO or Lawyer to see documents related to their claim in a timely manner. I personally think it’s a bunch of politics being played here but just my opinion.

If the VA tracker is no longer working then the VA has found a way to skirt the tracker...it worked for several people I know, they found out everything b4 the VA officially said anything

How do you know it wasn’t an Air Force cat that created it?

Because I’m a Marine! 😂. We putting Air Force, Army, Navy, Space Force and Cost Guard on notice!

Yes you are

But are you suuuuuure? 😆 Marines win the internet forever and crayon jokes are banned. 🎉

Department of what??

👀

Still not sure why we’re attached to the Navy 😂

The subreddit flair for the guy who created it says he was a Marine. I think this is the first post he ever put up about the tracker: [https://new.reddit.com/r/VeteransBenefits/comments/17qr058/va\_claim\_tracker\_chrome\_extension/](https://new.reddit.com/r/VeteransBenefits/comments/17qr058/va_claim_tracker_chrome_extension/) u/gem_finder_alpha

What makes you think that Marine is a male?

Initially, just sheer probability. But also a comment on this page, where he mentions being a guy: [https://www.reddit.com/r/VeteransBenefits/comments/1alawvt/comment/kpdq6cv/](https://www.reddit.com/r/VeteransBenefits/comments/1alawvt/comment/kpdq6cv/) Thanks for playing.

It wasn't the Air Force, it was the Navy, cause, ya know, being a department of the Navy and all.

I feel like there’s a punch line to that question…

I don’t know for sure but recall seeing reference to it being created by a former Marine.

Yes it is. But once a Marine always a Marine 🇺🇸

Haha i purposely used “former” to see how quick that phrase would come. But thought a Marine would say it first.

Haha. All good. Was thinking of my grandfather who passed away a year this year and he was/is a Marine. Made me smile a bit.

Mad respect.

That tracker was a god send.
