Its all messed up in that I wont be receiving the full amount in my pocket until september. I will get my DoD retirement pay (minus taxes) and then just a portion of my VA pay until then because apparently VA sends out monthly payments aroudn the 15th of the month to be deposited on the first of...

Everything updated on the app on Friday. However, it appears my pay is all messed up and I wont actually get my full VA pay until September 1st. Frustrating its taken so long and the pay still wont be what it should be until then. I mean, not like I have bills to pay ya know.........

Got some info to share: I was able to obtain an email address for the person assigned to my case with the VA. They had what appears to be their supervisor respond. In short, I was told that "a record number" of personnel were discharged through IDES in May and that the VA is running behind on...

What blew me away was everyone retiring saying that their rating updated the day after they got out. Apparently someone has quit hitting the "finalize" button. Ive had many things I have had to push back because I am waiting on them to get things figured out. So very frustrating with absolutely...

I retired on 28 May and still nothing. There was no new claim added to the VA app or website until 01 July which is currently still sitting in "evidence gathering, review, and decision"...... all that stuff is already done. I cant imagine there is a whole lot to finalizing these claims, which ya...

I received my DoD retirement pay because the VA has still not gotten my rating finalized. I will not normally be paid retirement pay due to offset normally as I am 100%/100%.

I did receive regular DoD retirement pay but nothing from the VA. Unofrunately they DoD pay is much much less than VA. I was proposed at 100%. I am not totally convinced I didnt end up on someone less than motivated's desk as I had nothing showing in the VA app until 01 July which list my claim...

Just putting this out there... I still have not received a rating nor have I been paid. So much for a "seamless" transition.

I medically retired 28 May and have nothing as well. I was under the impression that the day after I retired everything would be finalized. I am in no way counting on getting paid July 1st as I was "guaranteed". What a mess, I cant imagine its that big of a process to go from proposed ratings to...

Have you gotten your final VA rating letter yet? I retired May 28th and am still waiting. You need that letter for many things once you get out, depending on state benefits.

here I am 15 days after my retirement date and still no letter. Sure do wish I had it, you need that letter for many things. Retirement date was 28May and my DD214 was uploaded by my MSC to the VA on 15 May.

Definitely want to be sure I get that first VA check on July 1st.

I have submitted my 214 and see it uploaded on my VA portal. Just waiting on this dang letter and rating to show up on the VA site.

My retirement date was 28 May 2024. On the VA website there is still no decision letter available. I was just wondering if anyone can shed some light on the timeline I should expect to get my final rating letter? I am needing to register a vehicle etc. and that letter sure would make it easier.

Got mine the very next day! Cannot wait! Its nice to be in total OFP mode right now, what are they gonna do? kick me out?

It wont fix it, nothing will. However, the mental stress and low income certainly dont help. Thankfully Ive already got a job and house all set up for my family and we are going to experience a dramatic improvement in quality of life.

Congrats. I got my retirement date of 28 May and have submitted for orders. Start terminal leave the 17th! Cannot wait to get on with life...... and not be broke any more.

Through message traffic or NSIPS? I am eagerly awaiting my retirement message. Can you walk me through this? I get a message through message traffic and then apply for retirement orders? Or do I just get orders cut to me through message traffic?

Has your command been checking Message Traffic for your notification? You need the message and then you submit for your orders.

I'm over here checking message traffic a hundred times a day.......
