Abstract
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is amending its regulations governing appeals to the Board of Veterans' Appeals (BVA or Board) to clarify the actions an agency of original jurisdiction (AOJ) must take to determine whether a written communication from a claimant that is ambiguous in its purpose is intended to be a Notice of Disagreement (NOD) with an adverse claims decision.
