    Thoughts on C&P

    Like @tony292 mentioned, your rating for this claim will be 50% (Occupational and social impairment with reduced reliability and productivity). Good luck.

    IDES/MEB TIMELINE

    PEBLOs will always give you longer than expected timeline so that you don't bother them. Since your case is closed, the end is in sight. Hang in there, and keep us posted.

    IDES/MEB TIMELINE

    If your case was closed today, you'll pretty much hear from your PEBLO soon (say in about 1-2 weeks). Good luck, and let me know how it goes.

    IDES/MEB TIMELINE

    I know exactly how you feel with the waiting but be rest assured that it may go faster than you expected. At the meantime, preoccupy yourself with other things like job finding, college application, and SFL-TAP CAP program. Remember that timelines differ with everyone, and you might be lucky...

    IDES/MEB TIMELINE

    Hey everyone, I'm U.S. Army AD. This forum was very instrumental to me throughout the entire IDES process, so I figured that sharing my timeline may help answer someone's question(s) with regards to IDES/MEB/VA timeline and process. TIMELINE: 12/18/2018 - MEB initiated with three P3 profiles...

    Fort Lee Timeline for Back issues

    This is what happens.....when you initially filed your claim, that date (which in your case was late last year) will show on VA.gov with all your claims, however, when you complete your C&P exams, NARSUM and IPEB, you will notice that a few claims were either added or dropped at the discretion...

    Seeing a request closed is actually a GREAT THING. It simply means that the VA has gathered all the clarifications and/or answers they are looking for (with regards to your claims) from either the QTC or your C&P examiner. Your claim will now move to Preparation for Decision. You might get your...

    VA claim open and closed at the same time?

    This is what happens.....when you initially filed your claim for the first time that date shows on VA.gov with all your claims, however, when you complete your C&P exams, NARSUM and IPEB, you will notice that a few claims were either added or dropped at the discretion of your examiner based on...

    Fort Lee Timeline for Back issues

    This does NOT mean that your proposed rating is ready, however, it may mean that the VA rep who is currently working on your case needed more information from either your medical record, C&P examiner or your PCM before he/she can forward your file for rating (and this will explain why your...

    VA/PEB timeline

    The reason you may be seeing changes in your estimated date of completion is that sometimes during the Review of your medical evidence the VA oftentimes will request for clarification (or more information) from your C&P examiners on a few things before your claim is forwarded up for Decision...

    What next?

    Normally when your PCM puts in a P3 profile, it will be routed to IDES/MEB office in your duty station for an MEB doctor (the final approving authority) to review your medical records before authorizing or denying the P3 profile which usually takes about 5-7 business days. Most cases of delay in...

    PCM Forgot to Initiate MEB

    Unfortunately, there is NO OTHER WAY TO BE REFERRED TO IDES WITHOUT A P3 PROFILE. Once your PCM puts in a P3 profile for your bilateral PE, NOT A P2, it will automatically be routed to the IDES/MEB office @ your base, and then, a MEB physician (who is the final approving authority) will go...

    Timeline

    @Kbert84 I am in U.S Army, and we have the same timeline. It'll be interesting to see if our ratings will be in at the same time. I will keep you posted. The wait kills me though.

    Extending MEB timeline to get to 20

    With all formal appeals, it'll surely buy you more than 20 months. As for the VA exams, go in fully prepared because those providers usually do not go through all your medical records that the VA sends them before your appointments. Most of the questions they'll ask you will be from the...
