What is the likelihood of getting a CENTCOM medical waiver for a deployment? https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/what-is-the-likelihood-of-getting-a-centcom-medical-waiver-for-a-deployment <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>My unit is scheduled deploy and i have to get a centcom waiver for being enrolled in a substance abuse program. Been discharged from the program for 4 months now and i guess my question is whats the likely hood of having it approved? No relapse or anything and i was in the program for only a month. Anyone have any experience with this?

My experience with the CENTCOM waiver process took about 2 months. I ended up being a medical holdover for 2 weeks after my unit hit ground due to CENTCOM being slow to grant a medication waiver. My S1 sent a waiver request for another soldier on the same medication a month before mob and his waiver was approved 2 weeks after SRP. The sooner the request is pushed up, the better!
