    My Timeline

    After the VA rates it, the PEB just needs to accept/apply that rating to the unfitting condition. That particular step for me (AF) took about a week. I think it will depend on how fast your PEB moves the ratings along. Also, my PEBLO team is super fast. They notified me the same day they would...

    Choosing Dicharge Date

    The appointments I did during the med board process counted as the separation physical for me (I am Air Force). I got the disability separation briefing from the VA rep that helped me process my claim when I started the whole process. Did you have a VA rep help you go through your medical...

    Hope it went well! And hopefully the orders get processed quickly for you as well.

    Little Rock AFB Timeline

    I just got my retirement orders today and they are for 28 March 2017. So, from being told I was found unfit to my retirement date is 4 months. But that is entirely based on how much leave I have left. My PEBLO said their math was 20 days PTDY + leave + 20 days to out process. I am not exactly...

    Just Notified MEB--UC

    My PEB findings came back with a summary of my diagnosis and then a verbatim quote of the CC's letter. I talked with my CC before hand and we both agreed that it would be best for me, my health, and the AF if I separated. So the CC letter was written very strongly towards a recommendation of do...

    Just Notified MEB--UC

    I just received my unfit ruling last week and the ratings this week for Crohn's. If your goal is separation/retirement, or you have been told that you are most likely going to be found unfit, I suggest looking at the specific rating requirements for UC and when you speak with the doctor that...

    Just got my ratings today. It feels like it has been a long process, but the actual MEB/PEB went pretty quickly. My unfitting condition is Crohn's Disease, so if anyone has any questions about the process from an IBD perspective, please let me know. At times it felt like my PEBLOs were not...

    How did you get notified of your ratings by the OAC? I called them, because supposedly my proposed ratings are done, but my PEBLO refuses to tell me them, because it "could change". But the person that I spoke with said that he couldn't get that info.

    Ratings in!

    Congrats! It is encouraging to see movement on a lot of people's cases this last week.

    Va rep told me to

    I would maybe wait another week or so. Also, I have seen on here that there is some sort of system switch over that is slowing things down. The switch over is supposed to be finished 8 Dec.

    Va rep told me to

    Interesting. How long have you been waiting? Mine took 6 weeks, which was pretty long for what my PEBLOs expected. But they said that the PEB is really backed up right now. They said it usually takes 2 weeks, and possibly could take 3. AF here.

    Looking for info on timelines for AF only

    Not sure if you got a good answer on this. My PEBLO looked it up in whatever system they have. My case went to the PEB 14 Oct and the PEBLO just saw the unfit decision in their system this week. They have been looking once a week for 3 weeks now for me. They have no idea how long the rating...

    What is your IPEB wait time?

    Can the OAC see where your packet is? According to my PEBLO, they haven't even seen my case at the IPEB yet and it's been there 5 weeks. She was saying that 3 weeks is average for an AF fit/unfit decision. Did you ever figure out what took so long for yours?

    Hey, I saw that you got orders to be with your family while you wait out the PEB results. How did you go about doing that? My husband is up for PCS soon and they are talking next couple months. But my PEB hasn't even returned a fit/unfit yet. We are worried that our family will be split up...

    Recommended for MEB...now what??

    Yes. It is the last step in the relatively new (maybe 2-3 years) process to better screen people before sending them to a full MEB, because a full MEB is expensive. Fewer and fewer people are getting returned to duty after getting sent to the full MEB, and even fewer if it is sent past that to...
