I had approved MEDCON orders but those were squashed - another story entirely. Since I was supposed to be on orders this whole time, that would make any new condition during this period service related.I got a new diagnosis today but since I'm not on orders, like I was supposed to be, this...

I would recommend staying in through the MEB, you'll be glad down the road. As far as jobs go, there's a possibility you could take some leave, start a civilian job then take military leave from the civilian job and return to your MEB. My company (CACI) has done similar things for new hires they...

My Dr wanted to wait to start my MEB, she thought the more documentation she had, the better they would be able to evaluate my condition. She waited nearly a year, during which time I had 3 flare ups and plenty of documentation, scopes, etc. So, yes, the MEB can be postponed. I asked my Dr to...

So just to clarify, if I was making $2000 a month on while on orders and my civilian job now only pays $1000 a month, would INCAP would pay the $1000 difference per month in lost income? And how are pay and allowances calculated? Based on home of record or the last paycheck (overseas, COLA...

Turns out I wasn't even supposed to initiate my retirement, the PEBLO was and they dropped the ball. Found the correct POC at Randolph that will be processing my entire retirement, correctly, effective 27 Sep 12. Yes, I'll be filing a claim for unlawful discharge when this is all over. Is...

I'm a USAF Reserve IMA with little to no support. My main POC is the same person that interfered and canx'd my approved MEDCON orders, so needless to say I have a very hard time dealing with them, and certainly don't trust them. My PEBLO (RAF Lakenheath) is equally useless. I started getting...

I just got the results of my informal board, permanent retirement at 30%. I have other conditions that didn't make it into my MEB that I would like to have included in my rating but not sure if I want to take my chances and lose the 30% (my condition is rated at either 10% and 30% - I thought I...

I just got permanent retirement with 30% for UC so it's possible you can get 30%. I have other things I need to add to my rating but I don't want to request a formal board and risk getting knocked down to 10%. In your case you can only increase your rating but risk separation. My case on paper...

I've been on no points/no pay for a year awaiting the results of my MEB and have an EPR due. I haven't been able to participate for a year and have a failing PT test because my profile wasn't done correctly during most of the reporting period. No doubt my EPR won't be stellar. Should my EPR be...
