My son won that scholarship. Do the DODMERB ASAP. He did it all before heading to freshman year and was told he just had to upload a letter from his orthodontist when his invisalign course was finished and the scholarship would activate. Imagine our surprise when, once he uploaded that letter...

It's not a game ender if you're waiver eligible. My boy had same DQ and just contracted yesterday (ARMY). Total time from DQ to contracting: 7 months.

Google the medical release for the chain(s) you have used and send tlit to corporate office on the release. They have all records. If you went to more than one, get them from all places. The more complete your submission, the easier to review.

There is a 1 page AMI form that accompanies a record request if memory serves. Email your medtech if it wasn't sent to you.

Indeed. Congrats!

Vivid memories of driving 150 miles for our specialist appointment and leaving at 4 am. There is a bonus to using a military-approved medical provider - they understand what DODMERB wants, and will get the report to them quickly. You may get in sooner to a private doctor but you can't be sure...

As always...THANK YOU ♡

The illness is cancer.

I need to amend this question to add Marines and Navy. Thanks.

*this question is not about my child* Query... what happens when a person at a private university on scholarship develops a life threatening (but recoverable with treatment) illness before graduation? 1. Does all tuition need to be paid back to the Marines? 2. Is it possible to pause until...

Depends on who the waiver authority is. It could spend months in branch approval

Chiming to say absolutely dont fill those inhalers!!! Rx records are standard now.

Yes usually if they don't provide them it is because they didn't keep any session notes to provide.

I think the bigger issue is that not all types of counselors actually KEEP session notes. As a paralegal I request records from mental health professionals often. In the event that session notes are not kept they should legally provide a narrative report with the dates of service. Good luck!

Can't hurt to gather the things now, they can take time especially the pharmacy records. If they do request the waiver and need AMI you will feel good knowing you can pull triggers ASAP instead of having to wait for them to come in. Besides, waiting and doing nothing just makes ya feel more...

Absolutely Inquire with your assigned medical technician at DODMERB to make sure all pieces of information have been received. If they have been, you should be able to ask your PMS if the waiver has been initiated on the ROTC end and if so have them inquire up the chain. We also completed...

My DS has received word that his waiver has been approved at all levels, but DODMERB is still working their backlog and has not cleared him. He would like to contract on Feb 14 with the rest of his ROTC, and be able to field training with his class this summer. He's on the list to contract on...

Have him check it daily. AMI sometimes breed additional remedial codes.

My ROTC kid got a DQ for invisalign

Remember DODMERB doesn't make the decision. The Branch does.
