I had a better experience than @chaplaincharlie. I retired 28 July 17 and uploaded my 214 to ebenefits the same day. I received a prorated payment from DOD on 1 Aug for the last 3 days of July. My VA rating was finalized on 18 Aug, and I received a full payment (part VA, part DOD) on 1 Sep...

My PEBLO emailed me when my orders were cut. The same day my orders also showed up in PRDA, and my date of separation on vMPF updated to reflect my retirement date.

My PEBLO told me it would take 2 weeks for orders, but I got mine in 4 duty days. Signed my 1180 on Wednesday, 12 April, and had orders on Tuesday the 18th.

Yeah, I am shocked that I got orders so quickly. The PEBLO said it would take 2 weeks, and it took 4 duty days. Word of advice, if you remotely suspect that you'll be separated/retired, do TAPs now. I'm geographically separated from my installation, and Airmen and Family Readiness has been...

In addition to the mypers emails, I watched the status of my claim on ebenefits and evets. When your claim closes, that's a cue that VA has returned your proposed ratings to the IPEB. When that happened, my PEBLO didn't give me any info, but the VA MSC emailed me a copy of the proposed ratings.

Thanks, Jade. Yes, it's such a relief. You should be getting ratings any day now. Are you getting emails from mypers? I got one when the package went to IPEB, when IPEB sent it to VA/DRAS, and when IPEB sent the 356 to my PEBLO.

Good luck to you both. Now I'm waiting for MPS to load my out-processing checklist on vMPF. I have 55 days of annual leave, plus 20 days PTDY, and that puts my last day in the office at 12 May, 3 weeks from Friday. It's moving fast now!

I received retirement orders today! My official retirement date is 28 July!

I don't want to be discouraging to you, but it sounds like you're pretty early in the process. Since your package will be going to Medical Standards next week, it sounds like you're at the IRILO stage. The IRILO is AFPC's initial, informal look at your MEB package to determine if you should be...

Thanks to you both. I'll definitely let you know how long it takes for orders.

My ratings are in!!! 40% DOD/80% VA. 1180 has been signed and returned to PEBLO who says it takes AFPC about 2 weeks for orders. For other Airmen out there, how long did it take to receive orders?

Thanks for the info @freedomforcegal ! 22 days from the time it was sent to VA until notification of ratings is pretty quick. But I see you were first coded 37 in April last year. I hope your process continues to go quickly!

Wow, your case did move quickly. So yours took about a week for the VA to rate, then another week for the IPEB to put it all together. That gives me hope for a quick VA turnaround. Where are you stationed?

Any other Airmen out there want to share their unfit/ratings timeline? I got word via mypers yesterday that the IPEB has sent my case to the VA for ratings. My PEBLO confirmed that this means I was found unfit by the IPEB. The IPEB took 24 days for the unfit finding. How long is the VA...
