I just received information that for the period of time
from June 1st through September 30 all Survivors Benefits Claims (death pension, DIC, burials, and accrued benefits) will
be worked at the Regional Office in Nashville. Starting immediately and continuing through the end of September all
of these claims should be submitted to Nashville instead of the Milwaukee Pension Center. This is for death pension
only, not for initial live pension claims.

ATTENTION: Frivolous Claims (No grounds/basis for a claim)
could
cost you your accreditation to file claims. (ie. Claims
for high cholesterol). It appears that these Frivolous
claims
are backlogging the VA Claims Division and Well-Grounded
claims are getting approved later than normal
due to the
mandatory response needed for VA to reply denials to
these types of claims.
Go to
members page and blog if you want to express any
ideas/thoughts on this matter.

A Note from TDVA Trainer Don Smith,
As I am sure you are aware the CSO phone number for the Pension Maintenance
Center is Milwaukee no longer works. I contacted the PMC to see if they had a means for CSO's to contact them and
this is the response I got. We will try to put this information out the next time we have quarterly training but I am
not sure when that will be. Have a great day.

Having Trouble With Nashville?
As you know,
the TDVA folks are always available to help the CSO in TN.
CSOs should know to call if they have a case that requires our help,
please ask them to call our main number 615-695-6385
and
request to talk to a claims examiner. Be prepared to give the claim
number of the veteran you are working
with or on. The request will
go to the claim examiner who has that terminal digit. Please let all
know
not to call direct to a specific claims examiner.
