Currently I'm in a process of medboard.
I haven't seen my family for over 2 years and I want to go and visit them.
At first, I was told that I can use my leave to go home when I'm done with all the physical VA appointments and in a situation of just waiting for to hear back from the VA with percentage.
We all know this is months of process of me just waiting, so I understood that.
I also have finished my SFLTAP appointments as well.
But now. my company 1st sgt said that those who are on medboard process are not allowed to take leave at all....
So I got 41 days of leave, and 74 ets leave left yet I can't use it.
I was told that I could use it when I'm just sitting and waiting for my percentage, but now I can't even use my leave at all.
As soon as I hear back from the VA with my percentage, I'll start clearing and will be medically discharged right away.
So there is no point of ETS leave as well since I'm getting medically discharged right away after clearing when I hear my percentage back.
Since my 1st sgt is not approving any leaves during medboard process, does this mean that all my 41 days of leaves and 74 ets leaves are just gonna go to a waste now?

Your ETS balance is only accurate if you were going to ETS on your current ETS date, which you will not.
When you receive your ratings you will receive a new ETS date, usually around 90 days. That is the time that you have to complete TAP, clear, and take transition leave, and sell any leave you can't fit into that period. The amount of leave you will have will be whatever you have on your separation date plus 2.5 days for every month up to your new ETS.
