How long for Unfit?

How long have you all had to wait for the word that you were unfit? I signed the MEB paperwork last Thursday to go to PEB and I'm getting anxious, I'm ready for this to be over. I plan on asking my PEBLO tomorrow, I have MS so this decision shouldnt take too long for an unfit.
 
so I am new to the meb process signed my narsum on the 19th and was told 7 to10 days for unfit from my peblo still no word back. is there any way I can tell if I was found unfit I don't have a second claim on ebenefits and my peblo doesn't seem to want to answer my questions how long should my unfit memo take?
I think it varies by case my peblo told me it would take about a week to find out whether i was fit or unfit but, I got my unfit memo in 4 days

Mine told me the same thing. She told me I was unfit but I haven't had any other claims open on ebenefits :-(

where do I find the "second claim on ebenefits" is it under the work in progress, if so I don't have a second claim. I am losing my mind in the limbo waiting game.
 
still no second claim on ebenefits?? but I did receive my unfit memo today!!!
 
Congrats on your unfit memo, I am 50 days and counting waiting on mine. How would one "receive" this mythical unfit letter? Email or other method?

My Recovery Care Coordinator at Wounded Warrior told me that typically, if you are still waiting for your results and it is pass the 30 - 45 day mark, then you are found unfit. Mostly because, the DOD wastes no time on fit results as they can be using you to be on duty.
 
That makes sense, I hope you are right. I really don't care about the ratings yet, but something letting me know it is in motion would be nice, and an unfit finding.

It took me four months to here back since I was found unfit. It took my friend who was found fit less than three months.

I was found unfit in about a week. Thats not the issue. The issue now is it has taken almost a month to come back with PEB findings and 199.

Im sorry to hear about that, my peblo called and it needed my signature. so hopfully youll have it soon just call and bug your peblo make them do there job. good luck!!
 
Called the OAC, and I have a case started on me....finally, only took 2 months and some change.
 
what is the OAC
 
It's the Office of Airman's counsel. It's for the Air Force.
 
So I see others say they were notified by the OAC that they were unfit. I talked to them for advice and they told me they do not get involved, nor is my PEBLO able to review or find out if I am unfit until the whole package comes back from DRAS and the PEB. Advice?
 
It completely depends on who is handling your case. Some don't care until you get your findings, others try all they can to keep you as informed as they can. I had to find stuff out for myself.
