My package was sent on 19Nov10 and I was told it would be 4-6 weeks for results from the ipeb.. I am just curious what everyone else has been told with november packages. I am kind of thinking that the holidays might slow this timeline down.
 
My package was sent the same time as yours. My PEBLO briefed 2-3 months. Unofficially he is saying it is taking 6 weeks. I am not expecting a result until after the New Year.
 
It all depends on the service you are in, as for the length of time. Also are you in the pilot program or legacy? My package has been out since 23 Aug 10. If you are in the pilot program you also have to deal with the VA giving you your proposed rating and they are VERY slow. All I can recommend is keep in touch with your PEBLO and also call the VA from time to time to see if you have been given a proposed rating (1-800-827-1000) is the number to the VA.
 
Thanks Yankin please keep me posted. I am anxiously awaiting the IPEB's decision...I was at the PEBLO's office today and she said it has been taking 6 weeks but since mine was submiited in mid november, It probably wont be returned until the beginning of January.

I think this part of the forum is commited to Air force timelines isn't it? Thank you for the info!
 
I am still waiting for the IPEB results. Everyone but my doctor seems to think I will be separated. The CC's LOD recommended discharge. The condition on the narrative is moderate COPD/with Bronchiectasis, and mild reactive airway disease. I am on four different meds which are only marginally helping. Anyone out there retained with similar conditions?
 
IPEB findings arrived today, separation with severance. Rated me 10%, on my way to the ADC to see if I have a case for appeal, Either way I am happy to be going.
 
justincase876,

Are you in the Pilot Program or Legacy? I noticed that your package was sent out in Nov and have not seen that you have received anything back yet.
 
I am legacy, Friday will be 10 weeks, the thing that is so frustrating is people who had their packages sent to the IPEB around the same time have gotten theirs back. To top it off, I am hearing packages from december are coming back. I just get told by my PEBLO to wait when I call. But seriously, anyone who has had a package sent since September hasn't had a 10 week wait like me. Just wondering how long I should wait before I go to my commander!
 
I hear ya; I have hit 8 wks today. By looking at the timelines most people are hearing back within 6-8 wks, so I am hoping that I will hear something. I already contacted my PEBLO and told him if we do not hear anything before the 1st of Feb, that I wanted him to call AFPC and find out where my package was. The thing that worries me is that my original package that went through the MEB was completely lost, so my package should have been sent to the IPEB back in Nov, but because the clinic lost it and then took their time getting another one back together, it took another month and my CC having to get involved. Plus I have an ETS of 31 March 10 and a start date for my new job of 14 March 10; I am hoping that the IPEB did not "misplace" my package. You could call AFPC on your own and see what is going on....the package that you received when you signed everything has their number on it. I know that is what I am going to do if it comes down to it.
 
justincase876,

Have you heard anything yet? If not I would advise that you contact someone; I had my PEBLO call AFPC on the 31st and we found out that they had sent a request for a new ROM on 11 Jan 11 and we never received it. My package was at the board within 5 wks and if this ROM was not needed I would have had my results back within 6 wks. Now, AFPC has given us a NLT date of 11 Feb 11 to get the ROM done (which is when my appt is); I have to get the ROM done and make sure my PEBLO emails AFPC immediately after it is in the system because my case worker is waiting on it.

If I would have not contacted my PEBLO we would have never known...luckily once they get it, I was told that my package goes right back to the board for their final decision and "hopefully" within a wk after I should have something back. Let us know once you have heard something!
 
They have been running about eight to twelve weeks.

Two IPEB's I know about just came back within those times.
 
Got my results yesterday. My package was sent to the IPEB 19 Nov 2010. 40% pdrl for degenerative disc disease after a surgery didn't help. FINALLY this is over. Now I am just waiting on the VA. This forum is truly a blessing and I cant thank Jason and the rest of you who answered my tedious questions enough! I am so happy to be starting my life as a civilian. I hope all of you get the ratings you hope for!
