You are correct, West Point is the closest MTF to our home. She was attending basic at Fort Leonard Wood. She has been sent home for CLV. Apparently, according to some of the latest information I have received from her NG unit here in NJ, She may possibly be kept here at home to undergo...

Well she was sent home and has been home since June 17th. She was counseled about Con Leave but that is it as far as I know. The NG Recruit Sustainment Battalion was notified of her being sent home for 30 days of Con Leave. I do not believe a LOD was done on this but there should be more...

For a 20% rating of the thoracolumbar spine, Flexion must measure more than 30 degrees but less than 65 degrees OR combined ROM is less than 120 degrees. For a 40% rating, flexion measures 30 degrees or less or Entire thoracolumbar spine frozen in a favorable position. A 30% rating is only...

Well I know how it is when calling units and what not, usually the Soldier pays. I decided to call her NG RSP today and got a little more info. Apparently they are supposed to be notified when there is an injury but they have not been notified yet. As of June 6th my wife has been on crutches so...

I am in hopes that somebody may have the answer to this. I have read a couple posts regarding injuries during BCT but none really applied to the National Guard. My wife is currently in BCT and has informed me that she had gone to sick call due to extreme pain in her thigh, hip and legs. Upon...

Nope I keep getting told they need all different types of paperwork that they know I can no longer get being retired now for two years. They have not said anything yet about filing with the ABCMR

I have been trying to get a waiver for this debt but I have been thrown all over the place for it. Every packet ive sent in has been returned unprocessed for one reason or another. The last two packets I sent have not even been looked at. Ive even done a congressional which the response just...

Good Morning, Hopefully somebody will know the answer to this question either by experience or sound knowledge. A little back story. I was discharged as retired in 2014. Upon discharge I incurred a pretty large out of service debt due to a BAH over-payment which I am still currently fighting...

Again it goes back to many things being missing from the exam. She put that I was in school full time albeit she failed to mention that the grades were borderline failing due to concentration and irritability issues. Also she failed to address the fact that I dropped to part time from full time...

scoutCC, If you could, take a look at the following C&P results and tell me what you think. I believe it is contradicting in the results. First off there are a lot of missing symptoms. My exam started at 11:15am and the exam was signed off on by 11:42am. It was a very fast exam, not many...

If somebody with experience would chime in, I am wondering if when it comes to rating PTSD if the rater just goes by the magical occupational and social impairment or if they also use the additional symptoms that are checked off? For instance: The social impairment sits at the 10% or 30% level...

Come to find out, I have a bilateral factor rating putting me at 60% for a single bilateral grouping and an overall rating of 70% so looks like it will suffice for the 40%/70% requirement...

I understand your notion about the 40% for a single condition but being that DDD and Radiculopathy are both related to the lumbar and thoracolumbar spine that they would combine into a single system for determination purposes...

I am trying to figure out if when concerning Individual Unemployability, how the VA will look at my ratings. I was rated at 20% for DDD of thoracolumbar spine and then rated 20% for lumbar radiculopathy. Will these two ratings combine to have the 40% for a single rating of a claim to fall under...

Well today marks day 24 since signing my 199 and still no orders. It will be 18 business days and not counting the day of signature. Only thing I have been told was that PEBLO was told my 199 was with an analyst as of Monday and that it would be done by Tuesday or Wednesday. No transproc message...

22 Days and counting just waiting to come down on TRANSPROC Message..... This is crazy...

Well Signed 199 15 days ago. Would be 11 days not counting weekends, and still waiting on orders. Today IDES dashboard reads 0 days remaining and current step is unknown. Maybe today will be the day I come down on TRANSPROC and get orders....

Quick update. Ratings were completed Feb 19th, Signed DA 199 on 24 February. 40% DOD / 70% VA Just waiting on hitting TRANSPROC now and orders getting cut. Luckily Drum is printing orders as soon as you hit the list now, so its relatively quick..

You are not far behind me. I was found unfit 4 September and my ebenefits went to "Requested Separation Documents" on 19 February. That being said, depending on the complexity of your case, you should be really close to being finished for the ratings stage. Now I sit and wait for my PEBLO to...

Checked ebenefits this morning after not bothering with it for a little bit and my status has finally changed!. Went from "Review of Evidence" to "Pending Decision Approval" as of 18 February. Hopefully the end is really close by.
