That's what I like to hear! I hope you get the outcome you deserve.
Still waiting on my rating. I’m glad this forum exist because my PEBLO has been helpful at all. Idk if the same with yall but mine hates to be called when I ask for updates.
Been a very long week but here is my final timeline.

December 2nd, Orders received and out-processing started
December 5th, Final out (3 days to outprocess but I made it happen)
December 26th, RETIRED
My last bit of advice for anyone going through the MEB/PEB process is to do your research and prepare to advocate for yourself throughout the whole process. There has been so many times my own intervention is what caused the case to press forward. Stay on top of it and keep yourself occupied or else the suspense and wait will drive you crazy. Just know at the end of it all it will be worth your time and effort and your family will be happy you did the work!
Good luck everyone!

Hi. How did you claim 19 conditions before doing the VA exam?
During the process, when you called in the "decision phase" did they also state that they are waiting on IPEB FIT/UNFIT? I've been in for 45 days and they are still telling me they haven't heard from IPEB
I just got off the phone with them and they told me the FIT/UNFIT usually comes with the ratings. They also said that your PEBLO should have more information on our case than they do, but mine just told me there was no update and I'm on day 62. So, idk if it's true or not because I've seen some people ne found unfit before receiving their ratings
Exactly and that's where I'm getting confused. My PEBLO told me to "calm down" and to quit worrying about it but refuses to check any system. My MSC only provided me with her email and I have received 2 emails since June and that includes the initial meeting email. She doesn't respond so I can't get updates from anywhere.
I try calling every week, but all I was getting was "your case is in the decision phase". When i called a few minutes ago they told me that my case is with a rater and waiting for the rater to finish finalizing the ratings. So idk how long this is going to take .
That's what I get. But I've been getting that for a few weeks. This time they actually told me what regional office it's assigned to so that's neat.
Hi! I am not sure if you are still in but I am here at Cannon, my NARSUM (took 5 months) and CIS was submitted to AFPC about a week ago. Just looking to see if you had any tips for the process once I hear word back for full MEB. Also, curious as to where your exams took place since we are isolated out here.
Hey, Im going through my MEB and C&P Exams currently here at Cannon, I'm not on this website a whole ton but I can try to help when I am. If your appointments are over in Amarillo like mine, just make sure to write down in notes app or something of everything that has affected you, advocate for yourself. where I went they were super helpful.
