Timeline - Jax

I am as well, I have called the PEB office in DC and gotten info from them so I just kind of quit asking my PEBLO. It’s hard being patient when the process is taking so long and I have such an uncertain future. I was referred to MEB in March and it is still being reviewed by the docs in DC. I also have 5 addendums to my reffered condition though so I am assuming that has something to do with it.

I'm not sure what system they use to track this stuff but yeah, for whatever reason, even after I called the PEB myself to confirm the unfit findings, my PEBLO was not able to see that update. So I'm curious what the disconnect is.

Exactly. I feel like the disconnect between all parties involved is part of the reason it takes so long.
 
Findings came in this morning!

7FEB19 - Limdu (i had been limdu twice before for the same diagnosis, so this time I decided to go ahead with a PEB)
21FEB19 - PEB initiated
10APR19 - Last C&P Exam
15MAY19 - NARSUM completed and signed
16MAY19 - Package sent to PEB
02JUL19 - Found out I was unfit and package was going through QA before being sent to VA. Not sure exact date that I was found unfit.
31JUL19 - Called Providence, RI office. Found out my proposed ratings were sent out on 29JUL and should be getting back to my PEBLO any day now
14AUG19 - Still haven't heard anything from PEBLO. I imagine my case has been back at the PEB the past two weeks. I don't know exactly how long it is supposed to take for them to decide their ratings. So, I called the VA today to see if they would fax me my proposed VA ratings since it has been more than 10 days. Good news there: 90% ! I'm pleasantly surprised, and happy with that. Now I will continue to wait for my PEBLO's call.
16AUG19- Findings came back 90% VA / 70% DOD TDRL. I'm actually quite shocked at that number from DOD. I genuinely didn't expect anything over 30. Tuesday I will meet have a phone meeting with the JAG(?) I think thats what it is, and formally accept findings and all that.


I am happy with this. Honestly, I find the DOD disability percentage stuff quite confusing. I will continue to update as the process comes to a close, because I'm curious as to how long exactly it'll be before I'm out. I only have like ~33 leave days on the books for terminal currently. I can't seem to find much info on what to expect as far as that timeline goes. My PEBLO said 45-90 days after accepting findings, which is quite a vague window. And yes I know everyone's case is different, but hopefully mine can help shed light.

I was told by my PEBLO that 90 days from the time you sign.
 
How do you do this? Or who do you request that too, I have heard that we can’t do that?
Once you get your ratings you'll get a NLT but when you get a memo that has to be signed by the commander or 1SG you can request an earlier date
 
So I just so happened to find out my new EAOS by accident. The message was sent from Pers on 28AUG, but I had no idea. Im guessing it got buried underneath the bajillion Fleet Weather Center messages about the hurricane. I was looking through message traffic and saw it. So, new out date is 27NOV19. Terminal leave plus house/job hunting leave would have me starting terminal 27SEP. So I'm panicking right now because that is literally 3 weeks away and had I not been bored and nosey on watch who knows when I would have found out!

And being that it is Friday night, I have to wait until Monday morning to talk to anybody. But I'm trying to be calm because this should be one of the last times I'm having a navy-induced anxiety attack. Thanksgiving is going to be awesome!
