Good morning, friends I was medically retired from the Navy in 2020 after 12 years of service. I've recently received my PDRL determination and am now applying for CRSC. I'm rated 100% VA, and 70% DoD for PTSD-AC, following two deployments to AFG with NAVSPECWAR. I followed my branch of...

Hey everyone, Just looking for some guidance and/or reassurance. I have a job offer that is getting pushed back to this taking so long. I am at a complete loss as to what is going on. The communication is totally sub par. Nov 1, 2024: Initiated Meb Nov 14: NARSUM Started Nov 18: PEBLO First...

I was found unfit by the PEB in September, my VA app closed in November, and my case was sent to PEB in December. I have yet to receive or sign for my ratings as of today 18 Feb. After inquiring with PEBLO, it appears that the PEB found something that the VA "needs to fix" according to them and...

Hello everyone. I am AD Navy, 0-3 with 9 years 6 mos of service. I received my findings at 30% DOD / 90% VA on TDRL. Referred conditions are chronic sinusitis and allergic rhinitis. I am electing to pursue the FPEB because my findings for sinusitis say stable but was still put on TDRL, I...

Timeline I'll keep updating below!

Anyone in the Virginia Beach, Portsmouth, or Norfolk area currently in the PEB phase. I was found unfit 23OCT24 and trying to gauge a timeline for the VA to send my findings. Been seeing 60-85 day turnaround from other branches and locations here on this forum. Please share or drop some...

I have been watching other timelines, and I am apparently at a pause...which is probably the most frustrating part. Here is where I am so far: LIMDU Submitted: Sept 21, 2023 MEB Process Started: December 8, 2023 MEB Approved and sent to legal: February 5...

My wife was medically retired in February 2024 after 6 years of service. 100% VA and 100% DoD rating. On the first of October, she received a rather large check from DFAS, they claimed it was retirement back pay from 1MAR24 to 30SEP24, and nothing to do with VA compensation. We called DFAS with...

Currently one year post med ret. 50%. Condition stabilized. Back to normal. No surgeries or pain. Just some good PT. Got two civilian orthos who could write me a clearance letter in support of rejoining. Injury was two years ago actually. But took almost a year for the PEB and then been...

I wanted to start keeping track of my timeline and see if anyone here has comparable dates and make sure I’m expecting the correct steps next and know when I should start bugging my contacts to ensure I don’t slip between the cracks. My referring condition is MH, but I have about 10 physical...

Howdy, just doing some nightly overthinking here and ran across a question I cannot seem to find an answer to. Navy AD 9 years. I am referred to IDES for MH but getting a physical condition added. Based off the 38 CFR, my physical condition should be rated 60% by the VA, and it has been chronic...

TLDR; I was never placed on LIMDU for referred conditions, am I screwed on getting out because of this? In June of 2023 I received orders to the USS Abraham Lincoln. After submitting my operational duty screening/suitability screening, the Lincoln rejected my orders stating “The subject named...

Hello all! I'm in the Navy IDES process and I am expecting findings here in the next couple weeks. In the event I only get 20% for a bilateral joint issue, what are the chances of me having insomnia added as a referred condition if I appeal to a FPEB. I have been getting seen for insomnia since...

I'm an active duty 26M E5 in the Navy with 7 years in and my EAOS is in 2 years. After experiencing severe pain in my shoulder I was diagnosed with Bursitis from urgent care. After a shot of Lidocaine I went on my way until the pain returned the next day. My PCM was informed of my insomnia...

Hello, I'm currently placed on TDRL and I was wondering was would be the process of me going back to the navy if found fit, would I have to go back to boot camp? Would I come back as my last job or I can get to pick a new job? (I was a Pact sailor so I didn't had a job) and what would happen if...

My MEB has finally been completed after 5 months and now its been sent to the PEB for fitness for duty determination as of 12 DEC 23. My question is what happens next? My PEBLO says I am unable to track the PEB and I was curious as how long it took for all of you at this stage. P.S. My PEBLO...
