Timeline MCAS Miramar

[BrokeOffAV8R]

Good morning all. Figured I’d post my timeline and see if there’s anyone else in my shoes. I don’t remember exact dates for things but the months are close enough.

Referred to PEB: December 2024
Intake Appointment: January 2025
Evaluations: March-July 2025. Final appointment completed in July.
VA Claim Closed in app: August 21st, 2025
Received Ratings: Early September 2025. Signed ratings the same day. 10% DoD, 90% VA

Since then I have been patiently waiting. I knew the shutdown would delay my process, but it’s getting ridiculous now and my patience is wearing thin. I’ve spoken to MMSR-4 a few times, they told me each time that they could see my disposition in the system but it was not yet cleared hot for them to work on from the PEB. Spoke with my PEBLO today and she said I may not even see an updated EAS for another 3 months as my case has not yet been given to the President of the PEB for final adjudication. This process seems absolutely ridiculous and inconsistent as I have seen recent timelines with a turnaround of less than a week from receiving findings to updated EAS/Retirement. If anyone has a similar experience or any questions let me know, and Semper Fi my dudes

In a similar boat also on MCAS Miramar. However I submitted my package in October due to the government shutdown. Got my VA proposal during Sep. Awaiting findings. I've been told to extend my EAS as MMSR-4 is waiting on the backlog.

Update: EAS has now updated as 15 February 2026. Thankfully the time has finally come.

Man, that timeline is rough. It's wild how inconsistent the wait times are between different cases. Waiting since September for final adjudication after already signing your ratings has to be draining.
