Is this a reasonable time line ? My recruiter sent up the 5 pages of supporting medical documentation for meps to review I was already sworn in but had to get out of dep because of a medical issue with my wrist that is all taken care of now so now we are trying to get me back into dep for the navy .

It seems as though you’re waiting to hear back for an exception to policy to enlist. When documentation is submitted, it’s not just your paperwork that has been submitted. Other people are submitting documents as well. Not to mention medical still has their everyday routine that still has to be conducted.

Medical exceptions can take up to 6 months (not saying it will take that long) and it has nothing to do with your recruiter.

At this point just keep following up with your recruiter for the status. Good luck to you....

No. There's guidance in the how long MEPS has to review things so either Meps lost it your recruiters lost it or the guidance counselor hasn't checked up on it somewhere along the chain something's wrong and somebody should be asking those questions. I submitted an almost 200 Page inquiry and got a result back in under 30 days. So somebody needs to be asking a question.

Who should I talk to? My recruiter says he hasn’t herd and he has a few other people who have been waiting a while as well

Depends on the MEPS. Some of metro MEPS get slammed and could possibly take that long, but it really shouldn't take more than two weeks for a 5 page med read.
