PEB Timeline: complete each PEB re-adjudication phase no more than how many days from the date the PEB receives the medical and rating documentation?

• A. 90 days
• B. 60 days
• C. 120 days
• D. 180 days

Answer: (A)

Understanding how the PEB moves disability cases forward is key here. Once the PEB receives the medical and rating documentation, each re-adjudication phase is expected to be completed within 90 days. This window gives enough time to thoroughly review the new medical evidence and apply the rating, while still keeping the overall process moving in a timely manner so the service member can transition without unnecessary delays. If a timeframe shorter than 90 days were used, it could compromise the depth of review; longer timeframes like 120 or 180 days would slow the process beyond the standard pace.
