*** 6 Dam years of litigation, per this NBC 10 segment I wonder how many of my counter parts have been approved, faster than my 6 years waiting
Part of the problem could be who was the person or organization that was helping with all the previous claims? Maybe it just took someone who knew what they were doing to submit a strong claim.
Sure that's the case!! The sa.e thing happened with the black farmers, the IRS audits, VA housing loans and many more. This country has always had a problem with race and it always will. Mainly because the people who adjudicate these claims look just like you.
