VA doesn't have SMR in files
Question:
Quick question, I am getting ready to file for a claim, I actually have a copy of my original (Service Medical Record), there is the only proof I have, since my SMR in the archives list none for me. Do you think my copy will satisfy the VA for evidence?
Jim's Reply:
There shouldn't be any problem unless the documents you claim to be SMRs don't appear legit. If documents appear to be what they're supposed to be VA doesn't usually object.
