Jeeez, I'm sorry to hear that! They are taking waaay too long. It's been a month since my separation date and still haven't gotten my severance pay. According to the VA, my claim isn't complete so they don't recognize me as a disabled veteran at this point. I don't know if it's because my...

After I got my unfit memo, I received a message on my .mil email from a woman who works at the Family Resilience Center on Club Road. Luckily I saw it in time because she had already scheduled an appt for me to come meet her to put together my transition packet. Will update when I get my...

Haven't been checking this thread lately, I left Fort Bliss on Dec. 11th and am home now! I had to get a memo to clear CIF written up by the orderly room at my company and then the commander signed it. It has my name on it so making a copy wouldn't really work but I'll send it if you need a...

Yep! I scheduled my leave to start on December 6th :)

When you go to ACS tomorrow, the packet you are given will have everything you need, you'll just have to add the 5892, and there's a Medical Counseling memo in there that you'll have your CO or 1SG sign and you'll write your NLT date on that once you have it. Right now I'm waiting for my NLT...

Yeah, I'm trying to keep this ball rolling! I wanted to sign them ASAP so after I went to legal, I went to IDES and did a walk-in so I could sign for my DA 199 today. My PEBLO said she's sending up my case today. You don't need your 5892 if you're just going to pick up your outprocessing packet...

Went to legal, she was surprised to see my 0% rating from the DoD because it is very rare. My PEBLO said she has never seen a 0% rating in any of her cases. I confirmed with legal that I do not have to pay back my severance pay UNLESS I go to the VA later on and complain about my MEB referred...

Thank you! Not yet, I had to make an appt to go to legal to have them review my packet tomorrow. Then I'll try to do a walk-in to see my PEBLO to sign for the DA 199 afterwards. Super excited to get out of here!

Got my proposed ratings back. This is pretty much what I expected from the DoD side for my referred condition, and I got the rating that I had hoped for from the VA, along with a nice chunk of severance pay. 0% DoD 70% VA Very happy with the outcome!

My friend and I both got our unfit memo on Oct. 18th and he got his ratings back on Oct. 31st. So it seems that it really does just depend on the case. You may still be out of here before Xmas! Still 6 weeks to go!

My prelim unfit memo was actually signed and dated on the 18th but my peblo didn't send it to me until the 21st so really it was done within 3 days of signing my NARSUM. Can't believe how fast this whole process has been moving. I have an appt on the 4th with someone at the transition center so...

I had 1 referred condition and claimed 15 other conditions.
