It was just my personal preference. I had enough money in my account to be comfortable with, was due to get money for my final pay, and because I wanted to get my VA benefits started sooner. Since you can’t start your VA benefits until your separation, I decided to opt for no PTDY. This helped...

Most likely will be my final post on here but I wanted to share the information so that others don't get screwed the same way. Make sure that when you receive your retirement orders or when you receive your separation orders that you ensure it states that you can have two checked bags. Since my...

Hey there, I figured mine out. I don't know if you're still lookin for the answer. My days of out processing were 15 days + 4 family days + My leave (April included) which brought me up until my DOS. The slight issue is that I'm .5 days off from my DOS, so I need to take .5 days of excess leave...

I got my orders on 27 March. I couldn't start out processing until today though due to the family days given by my base. Hopefully you get yours today / tonight

It looks like I cannot do anything today or even next Monday. USAFE has two family days for "Spring Break". Sadly, I need to wait 01 April to receive any word back about my orders.

Finally received my orders, but I'm confused on the dates. Hoping to clear everything out tomorrow with the MPF. 7 July 2024 - Code 37 applied, notified by PEBLO that they’re building an IRILO package for knee, fibromyalgia, and chronic autoimmune urticaria. 07 August 2024 - IRILO package...

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!

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...

Hopefully we both receive them soon! Not too much time left until we’re both at the 14 day timeline. Right now all I know is that my case shows “Finalizing Case” in MyFSS according to my PEBLO.

Did either of you get orders yet? I signed my 1180 on 20 MAR. I was told by my PEBLO to expect anywhere from 2 days to 2 weeks. Unfortunately, my PEBLO refused to ask DPFDD on a better timeline. It sucks because I need to break my lease and also communicate to my landlord that I need the rent...

Did you happen to receive your orders yet? I'm trying to figure out when I'll likely receive mine since I signed my 1180 exactly one week after you.

Congrats! Just enough to get you DOD retirement and full VA.

They are still doing the MyFSS emails. Mine came in a day after my PEBLO submitted my paperwork and had my PEBLO and commander CC'd. There have been others that haven't received either myFSS email for whatever reason. Possibly could be due to the wrong email being input. If there were no errors...

I thankfully finished my TAP class before going into Skillbridge. And I signed for my ratings on 20 March, but I don't think AFPC actually looked at my case until the day after. It seems like the disability branch does indeed create and process the orders according to the regulation. I'm hoping...

2 days to 4 weeks is such a broad timeline lol. I was told to expect them within the week or up to 3 weeks. These timelines are terrible, just like every other timeline in the MEB process. I did find something interesting though. The same day I signed for my ratings, I could see a myFSS case...
