    General Timeline Question

    I think you’ll be okay. I started the MEB process on 22 March, and signed my 199 2 days ago. So a little over 60 days and I was done with MEB and PEB. 90% VA, 70% DoD, TDRL. Even had legal review it to make sure. I’m waiting on orders and I’m done. What holds you up is appeals. But I’ve...

    Interesting Note

    For those of you in the MEB/PEB process I just had something told to me on the Military Physical Evaluation Board FB group. It’s another good resource if you want information. However, I was just told that in eBenefits, if you’re in the process, once your case is forwarded back to the PEB and...

    PRELIM RFD?

    So interesting things are happening. After I posted the initial post here, that evening I moved back to Pending Decision Approval. Last night I had another request document marked no longer needed pop up stating “Return to RVSR for review” and it moved me back to Gathering of Evidence. I’ve...

    General Timeline Question

    I had 38 claimed conditions and 4 appointments over a 3 week period. One specific for Behavioral Health, one for Vision, one for Hearing, and one for everything Physical. You shouldn’t have 17 appointments.

    commanders statement help!

    I think it depends on the situation. I agree wholeheartedly that at a minimum the SM should have input into it. At a maximum you do what I did, write it yourself, and send it to your commander for his signature. When I sent mine I told him in the email that was my input, if he didn’t like it...

    Pending Decision Approval question

    So yesterday when I was researching this “Prelim RFD” thing that popped up in my eBenefits I came across this Information. It’s difficult to read but if you do so, it appears as if the VA continues to process your claim until the PEB comes back finding you fit for duty, then shelves it if...

    PRELIM RFD?

    Thank you. I know not to place too much faith in eBenefits or vets.gov but at the same time, having been in this process for 2 months and not knowing anything, I find myself checking like 2 times a day to see if it’s moved, and I get excited when it does. The most frustrating part of this is...

    commanders statement help!

    I did the same. Wrote my own and sent it to him. He added a couple of things and sent it to the Battalion CDR who signed it. This is important if you want things counted in your MEB other than what you were referred for because it shows it impacts you. No one is going to take care of you but...

    PRELIM RFD?

    Checked eBenefits this morning and I’ve finally moved from Pending Decision Approval to Preparation for Decision. Additionally there was a Request 3in my file that stated “Review for PRELIM RFD”, no longer needed, that appeared overnight. Does anyone know what “PRELIM RFD” is? When I talked...

    C&P to Narsum

    No there’s nothing to do but wait. Depending on who did your C&P’s, it takes time. I had QTC and they were spread over a 3 week period. I was told QTC holds all of them until they’re all complete, then does a QA/QC on them. If anything is wrong they’ll send it back to the providers to have...

    Pending Decision Approval question

    I understand the frustration. I’m in the same boat. I finally got my MEB results back on May 10 (8 conditions found unfit) and was referred to PEB on May 11. I’ve been at ‘Pending Decision Approval’ for 3 weeks now. My PEBLO says nothing to me until I either ask, or until a step is...

    Pending Decision Approval question

    It DOES NOT mean you are found unfit. The VA rates things that the DoD doesn’t. The only thing that makes you unfit is the MEB/PEB results (if Army see DA PAM 635-40 and AR 40-501). The MEB will make the unfit recommendation, PEBLO will forward to PEB, and PEB will request ratings from the VA...
