JBLE MEB TIMELINE

I'm just now getting my MEB process going. I've seen a few posts about timelines and wanted to share my story/timeline as well.

NARSUM submitted: 3 Dec 25
PEBLO notified CC of MEB processing: 8 Dec 25
Form 1185 signed - Do Not Retain: 15 Dec 25
PEBLO submitted case to HQ AFPC for MEB disposition: 16 Dec 25

Fingers crossed there are no delays and hopeful for a Spring 2026 end date the latest.

Will update as needed. Feel free to ask questions, I am by no means an expert on this process. I'm learning as I go, but am happy to help others with the little bit I do know.
