when you log into the DoDMERB website, you can see new steps added, such as:

- Date applicant entered into DoDMERB system
- Application Added
- Actual date of exam
- Date exam received at DoDMERB
- Medical data entry

What further steps can we expect to see, and what period of time is usually associated with the different steps?
 
If there are any remedials requested, you may expect something like this (shamelessly lifted from another thread):

02-OCT-17 Date applicant entered into DoDMERB system
18-OCT-17 Actual date of exam
18-OCT-17 Application Added
02-NOV-17 Date exam received at DoDMERB
02-NOV-17 Medical data entry
07-NOV-17 Date letter uploaded - Remedial R220.00, R251.12
07-NOV-17 Date exam reviewed
12-NOV-17 Date exam reviewed
14-NOV-17 Date letter uploaded - Remedial R220.00
15-NOV-17 Date exam reviewed

and so on, until it says something with words to the effect of "qualified" or "disqualified".
 
Date exam reviewed is a following step,this is followed by date letter uploaded,this letter either contains requests for a remedial or a qualified or disqualified status.
As for a timeline,I cannot speak to others but I was fortunate enough to be “qualified” rather quickly.
Dodmerb received exams 11/3
Date exam reviewed 11/6
Remedial requested 11/6
(I then sent my remedial paperwork 11/7)
Date exam reviewed 11/12
Date letter uploaded 11/13
I am obviously no DODMERB expert but this is just my personal experience.

That is incredibly helpful - thank you - the stress of the waiting process is alleviated when we have an idea of the next step and the waiting period for it.
