Congrats! Very happy for you

Hard to say but I imagine they would treat your case like a VARR and get the new rating done in 1-3 weeks. Here's to hoping! Once the rating is done, you should have findings within 1-2 weeks after. Mine only took a week. Wishing you the best on getting out soon.

Yes, it would be safe to assume you were found unfit at this point. Now just to wait for ratings...

Thank you! Yep, 20 days for job/house hunting

One more thing: To those of you still going through this process, please prioritize your mental health and talk to someone if need be. Stay proactive on making sure everything is completed efficiently and correctly. You are your best advocate. Stay one step ahead throughout this process and make...

Alright everyone, the time is finally here. Very happy to be posting my complete timeline. One year later, no more IDES :) Please feel free to reach out to me on this thread or via DM. And thank you to everyone who helped me along the way! This is a great group of people! Referred to IDES...

I would call back on Monday and it will probably be good to go by then. It's always a toss up if they'll send it to you though. MSC is usually your best bet for getting the percentage but sometimes the people from the hotline will just send you the letter once it's ready. Quality review likely...

No it won't affect PERS at all. The only thing it could affect is your command letting you check out. But just tell them it's not required for you since you went through IDES.

I looked up the Navy regulations and you don't need any separation medical exams if you are separated through IDES. We already did all our exams with the VA and whatnot. I would probably go by and grab your records from them but no it shouldn't affect your orders.

I’m sure you probably have been. You could always call the VA hotline and see if they say you’re “in the decision phase”. That seems to be a good indicator. And yeah I know it sucks not knowing what’s going on, it drove me crazy as well. I just had to figure out ways to distract myself so I...

When was your package sent to PEB? Mine was sent late September and I received findings late January. I was found unfit mid-October though. The rest of that time was VA ratings.

Yep, you can. Bring up anything and everything. I would recommend seeing your military doc for the issues you don't have diagnoses for at some point though. Just in case the VA says there isn't enough evidence, you can fight it later on and point to those notes.

Unfortunately I have no idea. I'm Navy. The answer is most likely going to be a no though.

It’s 100% dependent on your command unfortunately :(

Yep that’s how they get it. My fit/unfit took about a month. It depends though. Usually not more than 2 months I believe.

You’ll be found unfit. I was just found unfit for same conditions. And yes you’re correct about how they rate it.

Yep you’ll be fine. Ratings will likely take until May. April at the earliest if they speed things up. Which is doubtful haha

Yeah no worries! Glad to help. DM me if you need anything else.

The PEBLO’s get updates as to where your case is every few weeks at random intervals. If they tell you that you’re waiting on the VA for ratings, that means you’ve been found unfit. Reach out to them every 3-4 weeks and ask for an update on your status.

Thanks! And no, I'm an officer so I just asked my department head. It was pretty simple, I got an email statement from the XO of the gaining command, which said that they were cool with me going there. Showed that to my department head and I got orders written within a week or two. Since it's no...
