SPC Josh Tharp 6279528 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I tested as H3 by 5 points at one frequency in just my right ear. Both the MEPS doctor and recruiter/recruiting station NCOIC believe my waiver will be approved as a prior service field artillery service member. <br /><br />My question is based on the assumption they are correct and the waiver is approved - will my PULHES be altered from 111311 to 111211 and then choosing MOS based on that PULHES? <br /><br />I presume it is not the same as a permanent hearing waiver but from what I can tell would require a different MOS - although my specific prior service MOS no longer exists (13E) so i would have required a new MOS anyway. <br /><br />Thanks for your help! How does a hearing waiver work for a prior service enlistment? 2020-09-04T17:22:36-04:00 SPC Josh Tharp 6279528 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I tested as H3 by 5 points at one frequency in just my right ear.

HEARING. a. Audiometric hearing levels are measured by audiometers calibrated to the standards in American National Standards Institute S3.6-2010 and will be used to test the hearing of all applicants. b. Current hearing threshold level in either ear that exceeds: (1) Pure tone at 500, 1000, and 2000 cycles per second for each ear of more than 25 decibels (dB) on the average with any individual level greater than 30 dB at those frequencies. (2) Pure tone level more than 35 dB at 3000 cycles per second or 45 dB at 4000 cycles per second for each ear. (3) There is no standard for 6000 cycles per second. c. History of using hearing aids. <br /><br />Prior service is a little more restrictive.

I wouldn’t see why you couldn’t join with your current hearing issue.
