Hi. I finished my meb and was medically retired (perm list) on 29FEB. 90% VA. 60% DoD. My retirement les just showed up in my pay. Its not showing any taxes coming out of it. Only deduction is survivor benefit. Is that right? I thought I'd be paying taxes on the part that's not VA. I am National...

Hi, I've posted a bunch on here before. I just signed my 199. 60 percent DoD, 90 percent Army. No combat code (I'm medical so I wasn't directly in combat). I have 4400 retirement points. I just had my legal liason call prior to signing my 199. He's telling me that I will only receive 60...

Hi, I've been on the forum for awhile now. I should conclude my PEB in the next month or two. I'm expecting somewhere between 50 and 70% DoD rating by the time everything pans out (I was 70% VA going into the MEB with LODs in order). According to my MEB Legal rep, I'll likely be 60%, possibly...

I recently finished my MEB and signed off on moving to the PEB. I have disqualifying conditions for PTSD, low back pain w ridiculopathy, and R hip. I have a few conditions that are non-disqualifying with ratings as well (bilateral wrists, L knee I had a 70% rating prior to going to the MEB. I'm...

Hi, I'm a National Guard officer with 22 years of service. I currently have 70% VA disability (since 2019). I have 4400 points for retirement purposes. Already have a 20 year Reserve letter. I'm pretty sure I'll be between 50-70% when I get my 199. I already had a comp and pen exam in Sept for...

Hi, I'm a Title 32 Army National Guard technician that is entering the MEB process. I was MAR2'd at the State level in March of 2022 and recommended to pursue an MEB with the State prepping my packet. The online platform that submits my packet to the MEB (called MEB Prep in the MEDCHART...

Hi, I recently went to the MAR2 and was referred to the MEB by my State Surgeon. I'm 70 VA, rating with back, knee, hip, BH, and wrist pain. I happen to be a title 32 tech, so there's a whole other side to my situation. However, I'm considering having hip surgery sooner rather than later after...

Hi, I'll be going down the MEB/PEB road within the next year. I'm 44. Title 32 tech, ~4250 points, 70% VA disability. I have just over 3 years qualifying years so I could take my reserve retirement at 57. Hoping I'll end up with 30% from DoD. Whatever will be will be, but I'm trying to figure...

Question. I'm not in the process just yet, but I'm likely going through the MAR2 in the next 9-12 months as I know I'm non-deployable when I consider any more austere environment (which at this point means anywhere without memory foam bed, lots of car/place travel, wearing gear, and possibly...

I have 18 yrs and two months in the National guard. Work as a title 32 tech. 60 percent VA disability. Two deployments and a two year active tour plus 3+ years of ADOS totalling just over 4000 active retirement points. I've been trying to hold on until 20 years (reserve side) so I qualify for...
