Happy to help, congratulations!

If you call the VA and tell them you are unable to access your decision letter, they will email you a copy. It happened to me and a few others.

So I had a MH and a physical narsum. The physical narsum for me was generated at the beginning and reviewed by my pcm again once I was done with the VA portion (I assume to see if anything dramatically different was found). Since I was only MEB'D for a physical (neurological condition) I only...

If you're being solely MEB'd for MH, then it means they have your DBQ and are using it to generate your MH Narsum. That was one of the final steps for me.

The air force doesn't currently offer TERA unfortunately. Crdp is only for 20+ year retirees if you want to short of it.

I called the total force service center 210-565-0102 and chose the retirement section in the voice prompts. They should be able to check your case with the medical team there & will likely say "talk to your peblo". But it did seem to speed up the process, maybe it was coincidental but still...

If it helps, I called afpc on the 11th and it was done next day. They're gonna be grumpy though, fair warning

Your PEBLO should've been notified of your fit/unfitness for duty via the FL4 form from afpc (26 Feb). If you haven't already asked the PEBLO for a copy, you'll need to go ahead. Also you'll need to do TAP prior to starting skillbridge.

Hi, I received my FL4 in August when I was found unfit by AFPC. My PEBLO sent me a copy that I was able to use when I submitted for skillbridge a few weeks later.

Final Timeline ○ 15 Mar 23 - PCM notifies me of MEB referral ○ 1 May 23- Case meets criteria for IRILO ○ 2 May 23- 1 Jul - Absolutely nothing happens. I schedule follow up with PCM to see what's going on and get told the hospital is backed up and to be patient. Sigh. ○ 1 Aug 23- I receive code...

Congratulations! Hopefully your orders come through quickly!

I never received an update on the VA website until my ratings were complete. They opened & closed the same day & I had to call to get my proposed ratings. Throughout the process I called the 1800 number a few times and received similar updates to Octopus_man.

I hope that's the case for me! Any updates on your ratings? I saw your post about the permissive, that's rough. I'm honestly surprised, it's not like you're asking for a lot.

I didn't. Since I received above 30% I was happy with my ratings & decided to push forward with the PDRL. I was ready for the process to be over to be honest.

4 Mar 24 - Signed findings & awaiting orders. PEBLO states 1-15 days.
