UNFIT memos are not being done anymore however

VA Findings were sent 09 March 2021

Still awaiting an answer from the PEB to get my 199 and see my VA Findings.

Does anyone else have roughly the same timeline and can anyone give me some guidance, getting a little anxious here
 
I would not be surprised if you hear something in next 2 weeks.

Thank you sir for the response! Patiently awaiting to hear back, I spoke to my PEBLO today and he said that my VA ratings are showing however the 199 hasn't been uploaded just yet =/
 
I'm have the roughly the same timeline as you just 10 days later. I'm assuming you are Army. If so, have you seen your IDES dashboard yet?

Oh ok, nice where are you in the process? Currently my IDES Dashboard still reflects being on the informal PEB.
 
Hey, mine says I’m at the VA Rating step. Does your dashboard say you are at the Informal PEB step or the PEB Findings step which is after the VA Rating? Also, what did you mean by unfit memos aren’t being done anymore in your original post? Is that something the PEB does? Thanks.

See my Dashboard doesn't show me the VA rating Step, just goes from Medical Evaluation Board to Informal PEB and then the next one is just PEBLO Counsel & Soldier Election?

So what I meant by that is that previously once the PEB found you unfit, you would receive a memo indicating that you have been found unfit (Which was helpful because it was something you were able to give your command so they can be aware) however during my process, my PEBLO said that they did away with the memo and that instead it was sent directly to the VA for ratings.
 
Same thing happened with me. When I was at the informal PEB step in the dashboard, it only showed the PEBLO counsel and Soldier election step. I think it’s because the PEB can still find you fit and thereby skipping the VA rating step. Once I completed the informal PEB step in the dashboard, two more steps popped up below it - VA Rating and PEB Findings. I’m assuming I was found unfit because I’ve heard nothing directly from the PEB, which makes sense after you said they stopped the Unfit Memos.

Also, do you know how your PEBLO can see your ratings? Mine can’t see anything and said they won’t until the PEB releases their findings. However, I was able to get a preliminary rating letter emailed to me from the VA.

How are you accessing the dashboard? I am unable to access it via any link i've been provided - both on personal and government computers.
 
Are you connecting from a government computer at home or at work? I’m able to access it from government computer at home but it needs to be connected to the VPN. So basically, it’s as if I’m accessing the govt computer from work. I’m also assuming you are using a CAC.

Here’s the link I use:
That's the same link I have - and I only have GOV access at work - no GOV at home. But I'm unable to access it on any computer - have tried at my S Shops, PSG comp, etc. Have even tried a home VPN with no result.
 
If you are with a unit that has medics, I would ask to use their computer that they input medical information on. The dashboard is hosted by MODS (Medical Operational Data System), which is also the system where medics input Soldiers’ information for things like a vision screening. So more likely than not, their computer would be able to access the dashboard. Best of luck.

They have a system but I forgot what it is called where everything is loaded, so my PEBLO was able to tell me last week that my VA ratings are in there however he will not go over them until my 199 is in there so he can go line by line for everything. So now I'm still just waiting for the 199 =/

how did you get the preliminary rating emailed. I asked my peblo and he said he cant see anyting until PEB releases.
 
Have anyone on here gotten their 199 and VA ratings? I just want to see if we all have similar timelines?

You have to call the VA and ask them for it. The catch is that it has to have been mailed out and you have to wait 10 business days.
 
The waiting is very frustrating.
