Oh dang!! Yeah they should extend again for you if you chose to take the 20 permissive days. The separation date is always based off the leave + permissive days from what I understand from the PEBLO

Thank you!Oh dang!! Yeah they should extend again for you if you chose to take the 20 permissive days. The separation date is always based off the leave + permissive days from what I understand from the PEBLO
its been two months of waiting for my psychiatrist to write my Narsum too and its still not done. did you wait it out till it was finished or did you get help from higher ups to escalade it?My situation is a little slower than some stories I have read on here. We had issues with the psychiatrist taking two months to type up my medical history, to him being fired weeks later, to the only PEBLO not showing up on my original appointment in July, to her being possibly fired soon as well. So this delayed everything for a total of 3 months. I started seeing mental health in August of 2021. I started seeing the psychiatrist in December of 2021. Originally diagnosed with adjustment disorder, anxiety, and depression until psychiatrist diagnosed me for bipolar type 2.
March 2: Code 37 applied.
April 8: CC Statenebt signed- Do not retain
May 12: Package sent to AFPC
June 10: Notified of full MEB
August 2: Met with PEBLO for initial brief - IDES
August 3: VA called to go over what I will be claiming; migraines, back pain, dermatitis, right ankle, vision, mental health
August 22: MH C&P Exam - was uploaded into TOL 24th with Total Occupational and Social Impairment
August 25: Audiology Exam
September 1: Vision Exam
My mental health exam only listed bipolar type 2 as my only condition but I am assuming that will be ok and not affecting since it was considered a total occupational and social impairment? My (head to toe) exam hasn't been scheduled yet. I called the VA on the 25th of August to ask about it but they said they left a note with the schedules to schedule it so we shall see! I saw some people said they call daily so is that something I should do?
I had to keep calling the psychiatrist and ask for updates. Mine kept going on leave which prolonged it for also 2 months. It was extremely annoying. My commander is great and was able to also reach out to them so I’d definitely try if they are helpful!its been two months of waiting for my psychiatrist to write my Narsum too and its still not done. did you wait it out till it was finished or did you get help from higher ups to escalade it?
