Dang, that sucks. Thank you for the info!!

Does anyone know if they're issuing orders right now? My PEBLO told me that he would start processing my orders after I sent him my pre-separation worksheet (which I sent him on the 18th) but I'm not sure what that entails and he's not the easiest person to talk to.

Update: My attorney called me on Friday and gave me the good news! My VARR has come back and I am not ay 90 VA 30 DoD meaning I will be medically retiring! Now I just have to wait for my PEBLO to contact me so I can sign the paperwork, he is out of the office today so hopefully tomorrow...

Update: Reached out to my attorney today and she let me know that they are not reviewing VARRs and cases are not progressing during the shutdown. Of course no one knows when the government shutdown will end, but does anyone know if the Air Force is going to be processing separations for the...

Update: My VARR case was submitted to the VA yesterday. I asked my attorney and she doesn't know if the government shutdown will affect the timeline or not but hopefully it won't last for too much longer anyway.

Update: Sooooo... I guess there was a misunderstanding somewhere. I signed all of the paperwork saying that I accepted my ratings but, long story short, my PEBLO submitted that I denied them. That being said, I now have my formal PEB hearing for 26 September, which my attorney from the ODC said...

Update 27Aug25: Good news! Just called the VA claim status line and my claim is pending final approval! It has already been rated, just need one more person to sign off on it and I'll finally know!

I'm hoping to hear back soon! We got our first FSS emails on the same day but I called the VA claim status line today and still nothing, all they can tell me is that they've received my VA exams and all the necessary paperwork but no one has worked on it yet. Congrats on your ratings!

Great... I'm also JBSA and I received my first FSS email on July 9. Hopefully we both hear back soon!!
