MAFB Timeline(AD)

Still can't believe it's real, it says I'm entitled to an additional 30% from the VA but I have to file a new claim

My case showed up in my fss on Tuesday but now it's gone so I guess that's a good thing?
That was my same experience. It seems like your case was received by DPFDD and now they're working to finalize your case. myFSS no longer showed me my case as opened or closed on 21 March. I was told by my PEBLO that my case was pending finalization as of that day. I think that's definitely a good thing and you should be receiving your orders eventually. That timeline is unknown lol. I was given anywhere from 2 days to 2 weeks, although some people's cases seem to take 3+ weeks for whatever reason.

Well hopefully I get them by next Friday, last guy in my SQ got them in a week so. Also I took your recommendation and told my shirt to give me 0 days of convalescent leave so my dos is sooner, but I still have 16 days of leave so.

I'm there with you! I'm hoping I get my orders between today or tomorrow since that would be a week for me. And the good thing is that 16 days would give you another half months paycheck. That shouldn't change your effective date for VA payment by much!
 
Also just read the regs for IDES because I'm not allowed to do anything at work and was bored lol, but basically your DOS will be -3 days at the end of the month(Regs says so you get paid from the VA faster or something ) -terminal leave(I'll have 17 or 19.5)- convalescent(if any). So it looks like my final out will probably be 11APR or 7MAY

What reg(s) are you referring to that says you cant do anything at work and tat your DOS will be at the end of the month?
 
No I was just saying Im not allowed to do anything at work that's why I read them and idr where to find it
 
Update
"I looked at your case today and it looks like the Case Manager has it open, so I think they are working it. Should be soon."- PEBLO

So hopefully I should have my orders by Friday!? My medical issues have been progressively getting worse and I had to go to the ER yesterday because I got a migraine attack and vertigo attack at the same time while at work and no one can give me answers even the VA so far smh.

according to the pre-sep worksheet I had to fill out AFPC will establish the separation date by taking your accrued leave(if you want to take it as terminal) + 15 Days Processing time + approved permissive TDY
 
Congrats on your final out date!
I was wondering if you found out your rating at the same time you found out your results from the IPEB? I was under the impression that’s how it was? But based off your timeline it doesn’t seem like it.
