Just a quick update. I received my DD214 on 28 October and went to take it to the VA and they already had a copy of it. Apparently the air Force sends it to them a few days before your retirement. I still haven't received my award letter or seen any movement on ebenefits or vets.gov, but I am...

I was medically retired due to Fibromyalgia and the C&P exam was very similiar to the exam given to me by the Rheumatologist. For the VA to accept the diagnosis, for Fibro, it has to come from a Rheumatologist. One of the Soldiers at the c&P exams, the same time as me, had his Fibromyalgia...

Sorry for the late update, but I was able to have my retirement date pushed to 29 October 18. My last day in uniform was 7 September and I start my job with MacB at the end of the month, but I'm hoping for a GS position. I took 30 days of terminal, 20 permissive, and will get a paid for my 32...

I'm going to stop by Wilford Hall today and talk to her and see if she can get my retirement orders amended and pushed back 30 days. Worst case I will get out, but I hate to just throw away those leave days and the money associated with them.

Yes. they only submitted me for Fibromyalgia. They only put me up for Fibro to expedite the process or something along those line.

I got my orders today and my separation date is 27 sept and retirement is 28 sept. I sold 30 days of leave several years ago and now I stand to lose 32 days of leave. Does anyone know if I can request my retirement date be pushed back a month so I can take terminal leave?

My PEBLO told me it will take a week or two. I put 20 Sept as my separation date. I know realize that's the day I will be retired, not the date I will go on terminal! Oops. I have 62.5 days of leave and another 20 for permissive. I'm okay with that date for either. I'll just sell the leave...

I can work. I was rated: PTSD 70 Sleep Apnea 50 TBI 50 PES PLANUS 50 Fibromyalgia 40 Migraines 30 LUMBOSACRAL STRAIN 30 left knee 10 right knee 10 right ankle 10 left ankle 10 tinnitus 10

I was given my results yesterday, by the PEBLO, and signed my 1180. I requested 30 Sept as my separation date. Hopefully, I can get that date approved and get my orders in the next week or so. It ended up being 40% DoD (Fibromyalgia)/ 100% VA.

Called the Providence VA back this morning. They answered on the first ring. The guy was very rude, but he informed my me final rating is 100%! My peblo has had this information since the 10th of August.

Did you check the vets.gov website? it has more information than ebenefits website.

Update: VA Decision Reached I wen to vets.gov today, first time, and it had a lot more information than ebenefits. It showed they received my request on 2 August, reached a decision on 10 August, and sent information back to the MSC and PEBLO on the 14th. I called the PEBLO office and they...

I'm in the same boat as you. I signed an offer for a Job in Maryland and told them my tentative start date is January. The peblo and VA keep telling me I'll be on terminal in October, but I have no more faith in the system. I do have faith it will take longer then they said, so I've tacked on...

Thanks I appreciate it. It has been a long onerous process, but I'm glad its coming to a conclusion.

After a few weeks of my PEBLO not responding to me I called another PEBLO. She said the notes, by my PEBLO, did not have any updates. After some pleading I was able to get her to log into her VA account and check my status for updates. It appears the IPEB reported me unfit on 2 August and sent...
