I was medically separated (with severance) from active duty in 2018. The BCNR recently ruled that PEB’s initial decision to medically separate me was unjust, then directed NPC & DFAS to place me on the PDRL.
Last month, DFAS informed me that I’m now required to payback the severance amount ($100k). They advised I can request a waiver by filing a DD2789, but that a waiver isn’t guaranteed. Has anyone had a similar experience? Or can anyone provide advice? IMO, I shouldn’t be on the hook for paying back a severance that DFAS gave me as the result of an unjust separation decision.
Thanks all.
