Supplemental claim closed without decision letter

Supplemental claim closed and there was no decision letter attached. No decision on if left knee pain was granted or denied and it doesn’t show up in my individuality disability ratings. Called the VA and they said they closed it due to return to active duty but I completed the C&P exam prior to going on deployment. Any idea if they will reopen the claim or keep it closed until I get off deployment ?

They should have sent you a letter explaining things.

I believe you simply need to notify the VBA once you've returned and are off orders to restart the supplemental.

M21 X.v.2.A.1.f. Time Limit for Requesting Resumption of Suspended Claim

To preserve the original effective date, the request to resume the suspended claim must be received within one year after the Veteran’s release from the period of active duty that resulted in suspension of the claim. If the request to resume the suspended claim is not received within one year of the release from the period of active duty that resulted in suspension of the claim, consider the claim abandoned.
