Question for the forum...have a conditional USCGA appointment...in a nutshell DODMERB just received my medicals this week for physicals completed in February (I have no idea why it took so long)..luckily they completed their review in only one day and made a ruling...one disqualification;

D155.80Astigmatism in excess of 3.00 diopters

DODMERB account now says pending “waiver review.” Now of course I’m up against the clock and the conditional expiration date of May 15th...my question to everyone...is my goose cooked as far as obtaining a waiver and doing so in time?...or do I still have a chance? (albeit a Powerball winning ticket chance but still a chance😂)...any comments are greatly appreciate.
 
Try posting in the DoDMERB forum, and there are already a lot of similar threads and useful information on waiver timelines. Good luck!

We are still waiting on a waiver as well....the only thing I can give you assurance on is that the May 15th deadline is not fixed....we just went to the appointed students day at the academy yesterday and they said that date can be extended....

How does one go about acquiring an extension? Do I contact them, or do they contact me?

According to them, they will be reaching out to everyone that is still waiting, asking if you are interested in continuing with the process, at that time you can request an extension. I would say to continue to exercise some patience (I am the worse with being patient....but they are very stressed and getting bombarded with "what's my waiver status emails") Check your DODMRB daily and reach out right before the 15th if you still have not heard from them....Good Luck!!! Rooting for you!
