Timeline After PEB

- Start date
Jkern,
Took a look at your profile and noticed you're Army. From the day you signed your 199 the findings will goto USAPDA for review and once approved your orders are authorized. About 2 months ago when I received my findings it was about 7 days for the authorization to come down.
Something I would suggest is going to your post retirement services office (and the post VA office/liason) with 199 in hand so they can start some outprocessing/retirement tasks for you. Also, by giving retirement services some good contact info the personnel will keep an eye out for your authorization and orders and call you directly when it comes through. This is much more efficient than waiting for the authorization to come down the chain. Average timeline just based off my experience a couple months ago, 7-14 days for authorization.

I did not separate through the PEB process, but I did receive my separation orders via e-mail (my ako account). I then had to take these to separations branch at the installation (and I believe they had access to the orders on their database). I am more interested in the initial notification, but can others share how they were notified. I don't know that there is a uniform notification through e-mail, so I am interested how others found out. Also, if it is different from active and reserve component Servicemembers and between branches.
Jason,
Active Army Medical Retirement and I received no email.
In my case I was at the VA liason at Benning getting my claim in (this is almost immediately after I received my DA 199) and the woman advised me to take the 199 down to retirement services so they could knock out some outprocessing tasks, namely the Survivor Benefits Plan paperwork.
I went down there and they told me the authorization shows up in their system and they usually contact the highest echelon S-1 (in my case, brigade S-1) when the authorization comes through, this is of course, if retirement services have no other way of contacting the soldier in question. If the soldier is proactive (which is the usual case) they simply call him or her directly and tell them to come on down.
At Benning, retirement services physically cut orders with you sitting right there. They had access to iPERMS and finance so they could quickly throw together some orders. The main reason the soldier has to be present, aside from actually receiving orders, is so the retirement personnel can determine whether or not to factor in the 20 days permissive TDY and to fill out the Survivor Benefits Plan paperwork (though, the SBP paperwork can also handled during retirement briefings prior to receving orders).
There was (99.9% still is) a disconnect between PEBLO and retirement services at Benning and I would have never known to goto retirement services if it wasn't for the nice woman from the VA. I presume if one is not directly in contact with retirement services, the most likely way to find out would be through a phone call from a soldier working in the company level orderly room.
Aside from the waiting, getting authorization and orders was relatively painless when compared with trying to clear CIF!

I signed my 199 on the 11ths and I concured, however, i faxed it back with an attached "nasty gram" about my ratings and non combat related finding...i hope it doesnt delay me anymore :I
Thats good to know JKern. How long did your whole process take and where was your PEB at? I am going through the process for the same thing.
so after 2 weeks of waiting for my orders from transistion i get a call from my peblo...even though i concurred, becasue i sent my little nasty gram with the 199...they sent me another 199 raising my disability percentage to 50% permanant retirement...i wasnt to excited about the 2 week wait fo an extra ten percent when iwhat i asked for was combat related, but alls well that ends well...i just agreed with it this time and didnt send another letter, im ready to go HOME!!!! if anyhting ill appeal it AFTER i get out..but for now 50% isnt bad at all...
My PEBLO sent me to retirement services the day I signed my 199. Now I am just waiting for my date to come up on TRANSPOC and it is a frustrating wait. I have a job waiting for me that has already moved my start date twice, and I do not want to have to ask again. Signed my 199 on 5/3 and did my exit interview with VA today. Fort Bragg seems to have a ton of people going through the process right now. I am just glad that I did not wait on my unit. They have been decent through the process, but are slow to move on some things.
