I was wondering if anyone has run into this situation and has some feedback.... I was medically retired due to combat related disability after 20 years and placed on TDRL with a reeval after 6 months. I signed a selective retention bonus (SRB) for 6 annual installments 3 years before I could no...

So I final'd out on OCT 1st early in the morning and then everything shutdown the same afternoon. I already had my orders and amendments before all the furloughs.

I had 70% that was a combination of all my mental health and TBI related stuff.

its 90 days from the day you hit the transition list. You can put in a par after all your leave forms are approved to extend that date in order to take all of your accrued leave if needed

I received my first set of orders today. Just a tip if you find yourself waiting for RSO to contact you....As soon as you sign your 199, start hitting up your HRD or S-1 for your PDI report. Its the report generated on the transition list. It will have your NLT date on it. I submitted that with...

vr&e requires justification. I am in the medical field and already have degrees and certifications. I wasn't plan on leaving the field, just leaving my specialty, therefore vr&e wasn't justified for my grad school program. If you plan on doing something totally different because of your...

It did! I'd bet that your ratings have been proposed! I would be contacting your PEBLO to see if they have received your 199

I'm using my GI Bill. For my already existing education and licensures, it was just a better fit for my personal situation to use GI Bill.

I called my MSC and she ended up telling me.

I just checked the VA app this morning and saw my claim was closed! Hopefully you aren't too far behind. Just FYI, I really don't know if it made any difference but I submitted a hardship memo and my claim closed 3 days later. Maybe it helped or maybe it didn't!

I mean....we are literally just a few days apart on our timeline. I'll let you know as soon as I hear something about my ratings proposal.

When did you sign your NARSUM and when were you found "unfit" by the PEB?

Someone was telling me that once your claim becomes "backlogged" its a numbers game. Its easier and better for the VA to knock out less complicated claims and stop them from becoming "backlogged" than it is to address the already "backlogged" claims. I don't know if its true but at least its an...

Thats awesome! Congrats! I went yesterday and talked to the MSC supervisor and the IDES director and basically was told in so many words that there is nothing anyone can do except wait for whichever rater has my claim to finish it. I even submitted a hardship form and a VA form 20-10702 because...

Any good news yet? I called my PEBLO and she said that she's gotten proposed ratings from several people that haven't been waiting as long as I have. I'm starting to get frustrated and I think my MSC is dropping the ball....

What about you? Have you heard anything yet?

I just submitted a VA Form 20-10207 because I have a Purple Heart and I also have very extenuating circumstances with my dependents hinging on my expedited retirement. I have been in the "Secondary Ready for Decision" phase since 11 July 2025. Several people that have later timelines here...

No, Its my understanding that you can't start outprocessing until you have orders which only happens after you sign your 199. I started a CSP program and am just doing that while I wait.
