Just wondering what people think. I know I'm close to the end. NARSUM was submitted the first week of September...VA claim closed 30 OCT. My PEBLO never reaches out to me unless something is ready to action but on 14NOV my MSC told me my ratings. My PEBLO is saying those are unofficial until we have the 199. On 20 NOV my PEB case switched to PEB signature which is supposed to be the last step. Based on my percentages my MSC told me I am going to concur with the 199 with no appeals. How much longer do you guys think I have? I have an awesome job that starts the first week of March. Ive heard of people getting expedited for employment but every time I bring it up to my PEBLO he completely ignores it.
Can a confirmed job offer speed this up?

No. Hopping ahead only happens for members who are critically ill.
I have seen/heard so much conflicting information regarding this situation.
My PEBLO has stated that expedite memos only work for Formal boards.
The SRU where I’m stationed has told me everyone in the SRU gets an expedite memo right off the bat.
I’ve read that getting a job offer/school acceptance can get you an expedite memo.
You’re saying only critically I’ll get an expedite memo, which I’ve seen elsewhere.
I’ve seen people say expedite memos simply don’t exist.
Any current estimates on how long its taking for signatures? Ive been told that's all I'm waiting on is the final signature on my findings/ 199. Ive seen days to months on here but that seems extreme for just a signature.
I’m in the same spot. My claim closed on OCT 5th. I’ve got nothing for ya.
Yeah at this point I'm convinced this process is all made up. My Narsum took 6 months but I know a guy who got his in two weeks. My PEBLO wouldn't give me any information. I called my MSC and he told me my DOD and VA percentages and told me I was found Unfit and he said he's getting that information from the same system my PEBLO checks everyday. My PEBLO is telling me the information from my MSC is not reliable and nothing is official until the 199 is available. Its pending PEB signature now and still shows the same percentages so I don't see anything changing.
