No Alex. The DOD rating of 60 is based of the conditions that brought you to being in the IDES process. The VA is the rating for all the issues that have come about from your service and were rated by the VA. I have 80 DOD and 90 VA.
DOD 80=PTSD/Shoulder ligament tare (20)
VA 90=PTSD...
That's my process so far. I am in Utah and going through FT. Gordon. Peblo's are hit and miss. I am waiting for my discharge order. my 199 was signed 07Nov19. I am also a FED Tech as well, my HRO is harder to get in contact with than my PEBLO.

Would also be nice if the CMS site actually updated in a timely matter. Mine has been on the MEB state for 60 days but I am currently in the PEB phase. My PEBLO even told me that the CMS site is garbage and does not update. Another note to the CMS site would be making it so it can be checked on...
Thanks for the help. I was guessing the closed it when I saw what appears to be a 3 month backpay check hit my account which would be about on par for 90 to 100 increase.
