Where New Hampshire claims are worked

Workload report dated 2026-09-19.

Claims with a New Hampshire address: 2,463 claims pending, 12.4 percent pending more than 125 days.

For claims with a New Hampshire address, VA averaged 83.2 days to complete a claim this fiscal year. Individual claims vary.

Manchester regional office: 467 claims pending, 13.5 percent pending more than 125 days, averaging 75.5 days pending.

VA moves claims between offices, so an office's queue can include claims from other states.

Board hearings are mostly virtual, so an attorney does not need to be local.

What decides Board appeals

Claim Raven's national analysis covers 101,518 condition decisions in 49,876 appeals: 29.5 percent granted, 40.8 percent denied, and 26.6 percent remanded. These are appealed cases, not initial VA claims.

Where the Board rated the medical link, grant shares were 89.7 percent when strong, 3.7 percent when weak, and 1.6 percent when missing. Grant shares were 16.7 percent with one kind of evidence and 56.9 percent with six or more kinds of evidence, among the 80,128 condition decisions where evidence types were identified.

How this directory works

Every active VA-accredited attorney and claims agent is listed for free. Attorneys can claim their listing to add their firm, website and details. Premier and Featured are paid spots above the free listings, labeled "Paid placement." When Featured spots are not sold, they rotate daily among listed attorneys at no cost, labeled "Free rotating spot." Payment never changes the order of the free listings below them.
