Navy Timeline - Millington, TN

Ive only tried to call twice and every time it has gone straight to voicemail since 09 FEB.
I got through on the 20th of Feb and was told six more weeks after it's been 5 already. Then read a bunch of stuff on the other forums that the guy that answers just gives you a random number and it hasn't been accurate for anyone and have pretty much given up on trying to call them.

That is how I am after my last call I received 3-4 more weeks after my previous update was 2 weeks. I just ask the forum members because I read some responses that they will tell you how many cases are ahead of you, where you stand in line, and other details that I have not been able to receive.

Yeah its pretty well established that calling is a total waste at this point. You just get "flavor of the day" answers.
 
It seems that your case could have possibly been sent back to the VA for further ratings/consideration. While it slows down your timeline it is a good thing as far as getting proper ratings.
I’m not sure. How the guy on the phone for the PEB explained it, I was found unfit and even though the VA already proposed 100% and was complete before the PEB completed their decision, the PEB needed to request my ratings/file from the VA to get my DOD %. That way I could go into QA and get my findings sent to my PEBLO. If I understood him correctly, not sure if that makes sense?
 
Yes that's correct. The fit/unfit decision is made before you go to the VA. Once they're done the PEB requests the results and once received you go into post-VA qa phase.

Basically, if you've gone through the VA you've been found unfit (preliminary).

An Post VA-QA is not 3-4 weeks it’s 2 months if I’ve read around correctly?

So far, I am at 43 days since I was told my case started the QA phase, I still have not heard anything however, some people got their findings at 35-40 days, others at 50-60 days.

Wish what area are you in? I’m San Diego

That is good news, thank you for the update! Seemed there for a second, they stopped processing cases since no one was updating that they got the call.
 
Does anyone have info on potentially moving their retirement date? I was accepted into the WARTAC program for skillbridge but my retirement date is before the class starts. I would hate to miss out on this opportunity.

I'd try and look into submitting a permanent limited duty request in. That might allow you to stick around and attend a skill bridge program.

Congrats! Happy for you, my case allegedly went into QA before yours so that means I should hopefully hear very soon. Happy for you!
