Never Miss a VA Deadline Again: New Task & Calendar Features in VCH
One of the biggest risks in representing veterans is missing a deadline.
Appeal windows, intent-to-file anniversaries, and rating decision deadlines all
have strict timelines. When a representative is managing dozens of cases,
tracking these dates manually in spreadsheets or sticky notes becomes risky.
To help accredited representatives stay organized and protect their clients,
we’ve introduced several new task and calendar features inside VCH.
Automatic Calendar Invites for Tasks
When a task is created in VCH and assigned to a user, the system now automatically
generates a calendar invite.
The assigned user can accept the invite directly in:
- Microsoft Outlook
- Google Calendar
- Other standard calendar applications
This means your case deadlines appear alongside the rest of your schedule,
making them much harder to overlook.
Email Alerts for Due and Overdue Tasks
Users are automatically notified when tasks become due or overdue.
These reminders help ensure that important actions—such as filing evidence,
preparing for an informal conference, or submitting forms—do not slip through
the cracks.
A Centralized Case Calendar
The VCH dashboard now includes a built-in calendar that aggregates important
events across your cases.
The calendar includes:
- Tasks assigned to your team
- Intent to File anniversaries
- Rating decision anniversaries
Instead of manually calculating dates across dozens of cases,
representatives can now see upcoming deadlines in a single view.
Designed for the Real Workflow of Veteran Representatives
VCH is designed specifically for VA accredited attorneys and agents.
Many features—including the task system—are built directly from feedback
provided by representatives who use the platform daily.
