AD AF Member for 15+ years. Was referred to the MEB for MH conditions at the beginning of 2022. I'm not as thorough as some of you however, my timeline and current status listed below:

Code 37 - 27 Feb 2022
CIS Signed - 15 Mar 2022 (unfit)
FL4 rcv'd (full MEB) - 13 May 2022
Met w/MSC - 24 May 2022
C&P Exams (6) - most of June 2022
VA rcv'd claims pkg - 8 July 2022
AFPC pkg rcv'd email - 21 July 2022

Currently waiting ratings from VA. Have been in contact w/MSC, PEBLO, and tried VERA (who also is my MSC) they all say the VA is backlogged due to there not being enough raters. It's been approx ten weeks, hoping to hear something soon. Lastly, I want to say I appreciate this forum. Having access to chatter about what this process generally looks like is quite helpful. Good luck all.
 
Does your claim say closed or updated since? Mine updated Friday and closed Monday. The VA has had my claims since April.

The last update from the VA according to the website was 8 July when the pkg was rcv'd. Currently in step 3 which states "evidence gathering, review, and decision". No updates since.

AFPC received my package on 20 July and deemed me unfit on 11 August—now I’m just waiting on the VA. My C&P exams have been finalized since 28 June, and I feel like I’ve been waiting forever.

Got that feeling too, I checked in with my peblo today. Same response as previous, waiting on the VA rating dept. We'll find out at some point. Does anyone know if pkg's get sent to different people within the VA and thats what takes a while, I had 20 claims (3 referred).

Army here and I've been waiting 8 weeks for any updates since my Narsum was sent to PEB. It definitely feels like forever... 33 claims

Yeah, my Peblo hits me with the same response also. I called the VA a couple weeks ago to get a status update on my claims and was told that my package was just awaiting to be assigned to a rater. I’m still assuming that hasn’t changed because my ebenefits has been stuck on “preparing for decision” for the past 3 weeks now. I have 22 claims (1 referred).

At least ya'll get a decent response from your Peblo... She tells me that I have to wait and doesn't really give me any updates. It's as if I am bothering her day.
 
Anybody heard anything???

Also, if you are being meb'd (through the Air Force process) does everyone get referred to AF wounded warrior program?
 
Yeah, still no updates on mine either. My claims are still waiting to be assigned to a rater. That’s been the case for the past 2-3 weeks now.
 
Update: VA website is showing my claim has been closed as of 7 Oct. Called the VA Friday, the rep wouldn't release details. Hopefully Tuesday my PEBLO will have more info.

Glad to hear that you have some movement on your case! Hopefully once you hear from your PEBLO, you’ll receive the news you want to hear!
 
GrustyG is your claim showing up on the VA website? I know the website has been having issues for the past few days with not showing people’s claims, mine included.
 
Two days prior it the VA website showed I have no claims like they were deleted. But seeing on this forum that others were having the same issue I assumed it was a network issue. As of now it shows up under the closed tab. The active tab says I have nothing.
