Will my chapter 2 physical be good even right before the expiration?

Hello. I am currently a direct commission selectee.

My chapter 2 physical expires on Dec 22. 2024. That will be two years. Last update from HRC is, "Once USAREC surgeon general receives your commissioning packet for review/ validation the processing time on average usually takes 30 days."

That will essentially put hearing anything back at November 1.

Is there any chance that the USAREC Surgeon General could say that it's too close to the expiration and he wants another one?

Is it more likely he will go by the book and approve it?

Thank you all.

Your recruiter or POC would know the best practice here however if a physical is green on the day you are reviewed, it is very unlikely they would require another. These things are usually green or red and if green, I would not concern myself.
