    AGR Soldier needs help facing medical discharge

    Here is the thing. I am AGR since 2005 as well. I never had LOD's for my injuries/ disease. Your Commander must initiate the MEB or explain the situation to NGB. Most AGR's are under tricare prime remote and civilian doctors do not work for or with the military. In this situation you would never...

    Differences in SSDI process.

    Mine was a bit different here in California. I submitted via online but just got suspenses in the mail to complete. I then got another QTC exam which was a total of 20 minutes for both so I knew how that was going to turn out. I was rejected first time around. My appeal was rejected after that...

    Army National Guard IPEB

    My M-day Soldiers are usually really upset by the time they reach where you are currently at. I am AGR so my process is a bit different. Once you get your ratings then you are pretty much out.

    Timeline after physical eval

    Mine was denied about two weeks after the physical. Look at your evidence and make sure on your denial letter all of it has been annotated correctly. I found out SS took out information in order to water the case down. They are just as corrupt as any other process. I hired a lawyer and for me...
