Episode 7: Breaking Down the BVA Backlog

CCK Law: Our Vital Role in Veterans Law

Understanding the inner workings of the Board of Veteran’s Appeals is no easy task, and the metrics VA reports makes the process even more difficult to grasp. Join the CCK team as we break down the appeals process before the BVA using our Backlog Transparency Tool. We will explain why appeals get delayed in both the Legacy and AMA systems, how long it takes for decisions to be issued, and whether veterans can expect wait times to decrease or increase. In addition, we will clarify VA’s data regarding the number of hearings held and decisions issued by comparing it to our own research.
