Hah understandable! Just keep checking and it’ll show! Congrats on retirement! Life is soo much better on the other side. Enjoy it to the fullest!

Hey! It was pretty immediate after I was out. (A few days). For me, i just didn't know how to check for it on my phone. You have to click the 3 vertical dots on the right and there’s an option to select active military and retired military. Once you select retired, you can see your RAS. Hope...

Definitely no unity at all. Everyone’s process is slightly to very different. Most people find out they’re unfit way before their claim closed. For me, I knew my rating before I was actually declared unfit. They wouldn’t release my rating until my fitness determination was completed is what the...

Congrats on getting to claim closed! Most of us had to call the VA 1000 # multiple times to get somebody to send the proposed ratings. Even if you know your rating, I’d still call and try to get it as it will give you a little more info than just your proposed rating. Like if you’re proposed P&T...

Update: 18 December: VA Claim officially closed on app! Checked benefits letter and everything is the same as proposed. Shows first payment withheld offset with retirement pay for 1 December, and first full payment for 1 January.

There’s an 8 step process from claim received to claim closed. It’s just a tracker on the VA app to tell you where you are in the process

Quick update: 2 December: VA app shows open claim. Step 5 out of 8 complete.

Congrats! I got mine 2 days after retirement date

Right around the corner! Just continue to advocate for yourself and ask questions throughout the process because for me a lot of stuff felt unknown, like my case was falling through the cracks. Before you know it you’ll be all done!

Thanks! Yeah it’s already there and I did already email the rep. There were a lot of awards missing in there that my CPPA already put in Salesforce. So once that’s fixed it should be good to go!
