How long have you all had to wait for the word that you were unfit? I signed the MEB paperwork last Thursday to go to PEB and I'm getting anxious, I'm ready for this to be over. I plan on asking my PEBLO tomorrow, I have MS so this decision shouldnt take too long for an unfit.
How long for Unfit?
- Thread starter LBCutta
- Start date
I am kind of in the same situation. I signed my paperwork last friday. I just got an email from my PEBLO, and he said that I am in phase 3 rating stage, does that mean unfit? He also said that it takes about 2 months to get ratings back. I have bilateral FAI, been in the process since the beginning of July. Please let me know what you find out.
I have no idea what phase 3 rating stage means. That would be a good question for the PEBLO. Seems like we have similar timeline where are you located? I signed my paperwork last Thursday, I f I dont hear anything from the PEBLO by this Thursday I'm going to contact him for an update.
I am at Hill AFB
It took about 3 weeks for me to get the unfit. From what i heard, if a 2nd claim pops up in ebenefits rhat means you were found unfit. Not sure if its true but my first MEB where i was RTD was closed out and my current one where i was found unfit triggered a 2nd claim.
Have you heard anything LB? I don't know how to use old posts on here and reference those. I am still waiting on eBenefits and my PEBLO to do anything goes, no changes.
I was found unfit on 29 August and my case was sent to the VA that same day. No thanks to my PEBLO, the only reason I knew was the second claim opened on ebenefits. I still don't have the unfit memo yet though.
Congratulations, I just called Providence and they still don't have anything for me
Wow, that sucks. I guess all you can do is Keep an eye out for that second claim. My second claim has been there for 11 days and still says gathering evidence....so who knows whats going on at the VA
My PEBLO never told me I was unfit. I just saw the second claim on ebenefits. Once your second claim shows up you know the VA is working it. I'd contact the PEBLO next week if it didnt show up if I were you.
RFD means Ready For Decision...after that, they send it to the PEB.
I am stressing out, signed my NARSUM two days ago I want an answer now am becoming impatient, cant even sleep at night.
If your impatient after only 2 days this is going to be a very long process for you. it took me 70+ days just to find out I was unfit.
Haha. I signed my Narsum months ago. Shit, it's been almost a month since I signed my 618 and don't even have an unfit or fit decision. You're going to have to be patient.
really. my peblo said 3-5 days. thats crazy
Sadly, your PEBLO sounds misinformed/stupid like the rest of ours. It's a good idea to read up on the time line, the process, how it all works, and everything else. My PEBLO has never given me one piece of correct information.
