As soon as you have your separation authorization message. You habe all your paperwork and sep package done while waiting on the message.
How long does it take to get separation orders?
- Thread starter Lostsailor405
- Start date
10 days lost waiting for your message, and 8 days lost in package submission. Ouch.
Damn, I'm 26 April
I think its worth mentioning because others will read this -- per the separation message, you dont need to schedule a separation physical. VA exams count as sep/ret physicals. My installation, which is a hub for LIMDU didnt even know that even though it is clear as day in the message. They have been having sailors go schedule appointments with medical.
This process is so weird.. hope you get some good news soon.
Makes me want to choke someone.
The whole process does. I'm just trying to make it to the next career without getting screwed out of it.
Well amusingly enough only one person at the command gets them and he's on paternity leave. Makes sense.
That’s a single point of failure, you’re co should get them too, mine was CCD on the message traffic, I’m still waiting on my orders
Email [email protected] and tell them, maybe you can get them forwarded directly. Or submit an MNCC ticket with the same info/request.
Thank you,
I'll get right on it.
I am not very familiar with how these orders are handed out but I signed findings on 18May and was told I would receive orders 1-3 weeks. After reading this thread, it seems like the process goes 1-3 weeks for the message to separate, then the separation package is submitted, then after another unknown wait, you receive orders with your last date in the Navy? No date for separation in the message?
The initial PDRL/TDRL Sep authorization message will have your final out processing date and your official last day in the message
I hit up the Human Resources about my orders via MNCC. This is what they said.
“Good Day.
Thank you for contacting MyNavy Career Center (MNCC). My name is Kayla and I am with the Customer Satisfaction Department. I was reviewing Case #02654737 regarding your retirement orders.
Unfortunately, we are unable to assist you at this time. PERS-836 does not have oversight of retirement orders. Retirement orders are sent from TSC Norfolk.
However, in order to gain assistance with this issue, please speak with TSC Norfolk. To reach TSC Norfolk, you can work with your command's admin to inquire about having your retirement orders expedited.
Thank you for your service.
Very Respectfully,
Kayla R.

Yes, you will get a date for separation from the message, but it doesn't have the authority for household goods. You have to wait for that until the orders.
Holy asinine response.
They released my date a week ago. They told me to have my command contact them. Sadly we have another guy who's been struggling to get our command to contact them so we'll see what happens.
Did you go through MNCC? Also how did you ask about it?
The email he suggested. They got back to me about 6 hours later, not bad at all by Navy standards.
