Va ratings waittime

You should probably have your ratings if you know you were found unfit. Call the VA and ask for your proposed rating letter to be emailed to you. Chances are they aren’t going to mail it. That’s exactly what I had to do.
Depending on the representative you speak to, you could get different responses
Fit vs Unfit is decided by DOD during your PEB. Then, after being found unfit, your case is forwarded to the VA for ratings. I was found unfit July 13th, VA started the case Aug 1, ratings were completed by Aug 30th. Still waiting on ratings from DOD on Form 199.
Have you received any updated from the PEB? My case closed on va.gov yesterday and curious how long the Army is taking to finish their ratings.
No, and here's my understanding of the PEB after speaking to my JAG Officer, though I could be wrong. PEB is local to an active duty base, so each base might have different timelines. After researching a bunch of cases on this forum from different bases it looks like 20 - 30 days after your case closes at VA the PEB will have your preliminary ratings on a 199. I still haven't seen mine yet and it's been in the "Awaiting final signature from PEB" phase for at least a week now.
Ok thanks. I am under the impression that the Army PEB is consolidated and done at one location (PDA in San Antonio) for all Army IDES Soldiers.
That’s great insight too thank you.
