I have seen delays and rescheduling for certain things like a more detailed eye exam. I know when I was a recruiter, sending medical documents down to be read to see if they are accepted or not, they would somehow get lost. Of course it could be the recruiter too. Can you share what you are being told?

Dealing with MEPS is extremely frustrating for us, but I have to remind myself that they have their own mission and procedures designed to save taxpayers money. Sometimes that means they are understaffed and can&#39;t process that actions as fast as we need. USAREC got a four day this weekend, so we lost a processing day and the floor may be full when they are trying to project you. Just work with your recruiter and stay motivated.

Delays are going to happen until fixed. It’s unfortunate but is what it is as of now SFC Private RallyPoint Member Wed, 16 Jan 2019 18:47:46 -0500 2019-01-16T18:47:46-05:00 2019-01-16T11:54:16-05:00
