Hey everyone, I figured i would share my current Ides timeline since everyone seems to want to get a general sense of how long its taking. I was shot through the left shoulder while in an extended engagement in Afghanistan. My conditions through this MEB are: Pain and nerve damage to left arm and shoulder, loss of use of left hand due to nerve damage, and ringing of the ears.

Should go relatively fast. Took me around 24 days to get done with the MEB part and my packet was sent to PEB. Got unfit memo in 5 Days. Then only 116 days for ratings. Just signed my 199 today, it was done friday but peblo was off. I'm at Campbell as well, so now just waiting on my NLT date to come down from In/Out processing

I am in NARSUM dictation now, CANNOT WAIT to get this ball really rolling, I can only hope it's quick
 
Are additional med conditions listed on the NARSUM as well or are they listed somewhere else besides in member's health record? Just wondering what to expect with the NARSUM when I get to review it.

Office of Airmen's Counsel said I can't speak with one of their attorneys until I get a fit decision back. OAC said I was way too early in the process to speak with an attorney lol. I just finished my comp&pen exams 4 Apr and am waiting to hear from PEBLO.
 
I am wondering how fast Fort Campbell works.
 
My Updated Timeline, Everything seems too be rolling smooth at Campbell. The waiting for ratings begins...Hopefully I can get a turnaround like you did dale.e.bieber, I'd be thrilled with a 4 month turnaround.

15 April 14: PEB Found Unfit For Duty
 
I'm currently over 90 days so I'm hoping so too. From what I can tell looking at the Forum just about everyone is hearing something before 140 days. It seems to be mainly based on how many things you are claiming. I'm wondering why that is. To me it would make more sense to base it on first come first server instead of pushing off the bigger tougher cases and jacking up your average. Who knows...
 
I'm currently on day 65. 1 un-fit, 9 fit conditions, 10 total. Here on Fort Drum we are seeing a turn around of about 90-100 days. A soldier that was going through the process had 15 claimed conditions and was finished with ratings in 92 days. Most of the guys here are about 70-100 days. I heard that Fort Drum has one of the highest IDES numbers Army-wide, so I don't if that is a factor. At this point it's uncleared what speeds the process. I moved through the process fast, now I'm just waiting on rating. I've had people at other duty stations tell me that my time-frame was fast. Packet in Seattle.

What I've seem to notice too is once you have reached a certain date they just keep you waiting. I saw a few that have been waiting over 160 days and still no answers. I'm sitting at 96 days and praying it's in the next few days. I am just wondering how many times a day I should be checking, lol.

The My MEB/PEB updates every week on tuesdays, so checking it anymore than that wont do any good lol E-benefits does not seem to be very up to date, mine hasn't even updated to show anything past my C&P exams.
 
Officially transferred to WTB here on Ft Campbell yesterday (05/28/2014). Hopefully this will make the last stent of my wait more bearable....we shall see. 31 days into waiting for ratings.
 
Just hit the 40 day mark today, and from what i have seen on here the very beginning of the possible window for my file being picked up and looked at. :)
 
Just seen some movement on E-bennifits, back to gathering of evidence with a request for separation documents :) I'm starting to see a reasonable finish-line in sight.
 
The official count is 42 days waiting for ratings. Now just waiting on my DA199.

In the overall grand scheme, congratulations on the recent receipt of your IPEB findings inclusive of DoD and DoVA proposed ratings! Take care and enjoy what you have earned! ;)

Thus, I quite often comment that "possessing well-informed knowledge is truly a powerful equalizer."

Best Wishes!
