1.) Thank you very much for the information as so much information could and should be laid out in one single summary of reasonable expectations IMO... 2.) I will research the following also but, I am 100% Permanent and Totally disabled. does this mean I "Will be awarded SSD if I file and any...

Todays date 29 Marrch 2015 I made it to 20 years and 8 days Active Duty after surviving a MEB in 2011/2012 Ebenefit's states "Decision Notification Sent". So I back door'd the system through Ebenefits/documents while waiting for the brown envelope to arrive and found documents which state the...

Congrats. I faced MEB in 2012, returned to duty. Finished my Pre/TAPS and Capstone last month. Just did my Military Physical and the TSO listed 32 claims for me from my 3 volumes of SR's. Awaiting C&P notification. Should do well with CRDP. Very happy for you. For those that want to hit the...

Thank you TSgt Twitch, this too putts my mind at ease. The support from this forum is unique and priceless. Much respect to all, hoorah. Never Surrender.

Thank you for the input. The Concurrent part is what concerned me. I want to hit 20 TAFMS. Big difference between one, the other and both. Never Surrender.

I take it that you are ready to accept a military retirement if offered to you? My goal is/was to make it to 20 TAFMS in order to receive both concurrent DOD and VA. It is possible for you to do so it seems as I work with an individual that has been in the system for over 14 months and still...

Thank you very much for your support. I agree, it is unlikely that an MEB would get started and finished in time to keep me from reaching 20 TAFMS. My anxiety gets the best of me and I dwell on the negative. I just need to shut my mouth and do my job the best I can every day for one last year...

In addition my doctor just increased (1) medication due to the fact that (1) condition has worsened. Would the military want to wait for the problem to stabilize/worsen/improve (6 month period) before starting a MEB or is that too much to hope for? in fact I have learned in the last 2 weeks that...
