USAF timeline

[darrengilmor]

Hello all,

I know how nice it is to see updates from other people on how long this stuff takes and see what is going on, so here is mine so far. I'm in the IDES program.

April 2011 Doctor appt told I was going to be put in for MEB
May 2011 first draft of my NASARUM
June 2011 First time i met my PEBLO
June 26 2011 completed 3 sets of V.A appoimtments C%P
July 18th sign paper work NASARUM
July 26th packet hits Texas AFPC
Sept 15th Find out with a ton of digging UNFIT
Oct 4th 2011 V.A gets my packet to give ratings
Nov 22 told V.A needs to do another exam for knees and gerd
Nov 29th Other exams complete
Dec 13th find out V.A is done sent everything back to Texas.

it took me about 50 calls to 800-827-1000 number option 1 and 1 and 0 to get any help,but when lucky I got some answers

So now I'm just waiting on AFPC, Texas to send everything back here to MacDill to my PEBLO so i can find out my results. Does anyone on here know how long it takes once the V.A is done and sends everything back to the IPEB before they fire it back to your PEBLO.

I have been active duty 22 years E-7. My conditions are as follows

1. OSA with C-PAP
2. Back problems L4-L5 lami/disc still killing me
3. Right shoulder 3 operations need replacement laberal tear bicep tendon tear removed and slap procedure
4. left ear clostitoma (3 operations) no ear drum bones left
5. Hearing loss (hearing aid)
6. tinutius
7. Neck fusion c5-c6 plate and screws (c6-c7 almost gone now)(Find out Monday Jan 9th if i need another fusion bulge is pressing on my spine now as of Dec 21th)
8. Right elbow 2 operation 3 screws bad ROM and locking cant bend
9. left knee 1 operation needs replaced grade 3 chrmopetela
10. Right knee 1 operation still bad
11. Gerd (many scopes in the e.r thought i was going to die on heavy stomach pills)
12. Sinusitis
Well I hope my timeline helps someone out and if anyone knows how long it should take Texas to send everything back here that would be great. As soon as i get my results with all my codes I will post on here so everyone can kind of know what to expext. I have gotten a ton of help on here and now want to atlease help one person or maybe show someone what happens. i can say for starters chuck that IDES timeline right in the trash cause it is now way off months off. If anyone has a question for me please ask away. I'm no expert but I have learned a lot on here in the last 8-9 months


Thank you all
Darren

Anyone who might know,

So I called my PEBLO today to see what is going on. It has been 24 days since the V.A sent my complete packet back to AFPC in Texas. They told me it is sent via e-mail. Today my Peblo says no it goes by way of snail mail and they should see it next week, which will almost be a month. Then it will take a few days for them to input it all into the computer. Then that is sent via e-mail here to my PEBLO. Does anyone know how this really works. I'm my PEBLOS first case so I dont really think he knows a lot.

thank you,
Darren

Well i got my results back today. got to look at them but it was a copy from V.A not AFPC as their fax and scanner went down today. I have my offical meeting Thursday and Ill explane more. I got 40% from DOD, so ill just get the 55% for 22 years in service and 100% from the V.A. It says member must have re eval 6 months after seperating for my knee operation I had a few months ago. I saw the knee was rated at 30%. I had 50,30,30,20,20,20,20,10,10,10,10,10,0,0,0,0. When i do the V.A math that is 94%. Is is possiable they put me on a TDRL for my knee and in 6 months ill drop down to 90%. I know ill find out more thursday, but just wondering.

Thank you,
Darren

Sounds from the "little transcript you gave on your thread" that you will be put on TDRL and for a maximum of 5 years and re-evaluated every 18 months.

godspeed

Why would it say member needs to be re evaluted in 6 months of retirement from V.A for knee only?
