Why did my VA claim go from "Preparation for Decision" to "Review of Evidence" (no new evidence was requested or submitted)?

I'm pretty sure it's just the process.

Claim packets are electronic, but could go through multiple hands figuratively. Someone might have noticed that one of your contentions wasn't properly developed. There could have also been new or different records received from DA that were not looked at originally.

Had that happen to me. I found out the DAV and VA doctor FOUND new information and added it to my claim without me knowing. It was a good thing too cause they found a new injury in the records that WAS Service Connected and I am getting treatments for it now.

That happened to me but it turned out to be an update error in the system. I received my rating two days ahead of what was posted.

They review everything. In many cases they try to find something to deny your claim. Things have gotten harder under the Trump Administration. Do not forget he was a “draft dodger”. He really has no idea what vets go thru especially those who have deployed more than once.
