Thank you @RonG!

Hi, I was just approved for 40% CRSC. Thank you for taking the time to provide an estimate. 1.The Gross retired pay on my DFAS RAS is $3515. 1a. I did receive a DoD disability retirement. 2. My DOD disability retirement (Chapter 61) percentage shown in my retirement orders was 70%. 3. My...

Does anyone know how long it takes to receive a decision on a COAD? It's been about 8 months since I submitted mine. I've been in for a little over 16 years. I'm aware that the chances are low, but I thought I would've heard something by now.

Does anyone know how long it takes to receive a decision on a COAD? It's been about 8 months since I submitted mine.

I think I'm going to submit it. There's pros and cons for both staying in and getting out. I just want to make sure I'm making the right decision for myself and family.

Thanks for your input. It's a hard decision to make.

Can someone provide me with the benefits (other than serving the country) for trying to staying in for 20 years. A little background: found unfit, received 70% DOD and 100% VA. I may be eligible for 50% CSRC. I'm a little over 15 years AD and have the opportunity to submit a COAD to finish...

Yes, I agree with not sharing names. That's good to know about the 120 days. Please keep me updated with your case and I will do the same.

That's the same thing my PEBLO told me. It would make more sense to start SFL -TAP in the MEB phase. I asked my PEBLO if there's anyway to be extended as well.. Please keep me updated on your status, were pretty much in the same boat.

That was a typo, my understanding is you have 90 days to get out and that time includes your leave. You should ask your PEBLO if selling your leave changes that time. I'm interested to know the answer to that.

I spoke with MEB counsel today and that was one of the questions I had. Even with people teleworking, you still have 90 days to get. I know SFL-TAP is being done online. I'm not sure if you received your pre-retirement briefing yet but they're just sending the slide show to those who were...

I did some digging because I'm at the 15 year mark but unfortunately this is what I found: https://myarmybenefits.us.army.mil/Benefit-Library/Federal-Benefits/Temporary-Early-Retirement-Authority-(TERA) The Army has ended the Temporary Early Retirement Authority (TERA) program. Service members...

I think in your case it may be easier to get a COAD approved being that you're almost at 18 years but there are other circumstances that it would be dependent on as well.

Yes, that's one of my concerns, getting our BDE CDR to approve it. I have never met him so I'm not sure how that process will go.

Thanks Ron G! Do you think staying in will affect my rating in the future, is there a possibility it would decrease?

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I am seeking advice. I'm a few days from reaching 15 years of AD service in the Army. I'm currently waiting for my DOD/VA ratings to come back. I'm trying to decide if it's worth it to request a COAD. My diagnosis makes me...

The doctor added migraines when he did the NARSUM.

Thanks for the reply and guidance.

I'm going through the MEB process for a pulmonary embolism I had 6 months ago. I completed my C&P last week, to include the psych portion. During the psych portion my anxiety got the best of me, I basically froze and was unable to articulate how anxiety and depression affect my life...
