Same here. Haven't heard a thing. I'm doing TRS this week then have leave next week. Looks like my pipe dream of being out end of Sep early Oct is less and less likely.

At this point I’d say the latest date we will get is end of October… If you get PTAD approved then we can be out 20 days earlier than the date that’s what I’m gonna do.
 
Update on the va app under closed tab it says claim updated as of August 16. Might be a dumb question cuz it's under the closed tab but I wanna make sure it's closed. Lol.

Let me know how the call goes, but FWIW, I got my letter from the VA today. It said they got my claim on April 3rd (I finished my VA appointments on April 25th) and it took until the 27th for them to finish the claim for approval, and about 10 days and then was sent out yesterday back to the PEB. My case was sent from the MEB phase out to the PEB phase on June 2nd, so it kinda looks like it took the VA 3.5 months to finish the claim.

Per the letter they sent, it says: “Your military service department requested a disability assessment from VA because you were found unfit for continued military service…… We are proposing that your total combined rating for service-connected disabilities is XX%…… We provided a copy of your proposed rating decision to your service department’s Physical Evaluation Board Liaison Officer (PEBLO) [which I’m assuming is the PEB’s PEBLO to the VA and not my PEBLO. Lmao]”

So basically what I gather from this is the PEB said, “this dude is unfit,” and then just had to wait for the VA to finish up, and now it’s back to the PEB to send out the findings.

I wouldn’t worry too much about the length of time, cause I think you possible have another month or so until the VA finishes up (sorry). There’s like 6-9 steps to the decision phase I found out.

So I’m hoping to hear from my PEBLO re: the official findings in the next 2-3 weeks (I feel like @Blowjanglez should be any day or week now, but I’ve seen horror stories if you search in the forum where PEBLOs forget to tell folks, so idk how that works.

I had gotten the same letter. Does this mean we are unfit and waiting for the PEB to get our findings? Or is that a standard letter that they send out to everybody on the ides with proposed ratings?

Case Started May 4
Appt with Peblo May 31
Finished VA appts June 15th
Sent to PEB June 23
Accepted by PEB June 28


I see a lot of people have been getting their ratings and etc back within about 2 months. Should I expect I will get mine soon as well? I'm trying to figure college out and my life afterwards. I only have about 10 claims so I don't expect it to take to long VA side. Can anyone give me some tips? I appreciate anything in advance and will update my timelines as I go.

Hopefully it works out. If you're in lejuene the findings peblo is on leave and the person taking over for her is a little backed up but she's trying to catch up

Nah, I'm on Pendleton. I'm just so tired of working at my battalion. I just want to go to the ball, collect my dd214, and go back to Tennessee

I'm trying to avoid the ball tbh. I can't do it's even sitting there. Really aggravates my problem.

Talked with my 1sgt and he said he doesn't wanna hold me up so as long as it's legal he will support. So even if my eas is far out and no ptad I'd just change it. Could you tell me the steps you had to take?
