  Most likely if you are Pes E, they'll post you to SCDF and you will still need to do reservist as SCDF new vocations....

  Hi SGforum friends!

  I've got a question:
  
  I just completed BMT. But during BMT, because of a certain condition, MO applied a Pes Review to the medical board on my behalf.

  I just got my vocation as a SIG OPR.

  But at the same time, I am only recently aware that I've got a new Pes Status after a medical board review which was conducted on 5th July. So, I am now a Pes C9L3.

  What does this entail? I am quite sure that my pes review wasn't considered when I am posted to this unit. What is/are the recommended course of action(s) I should take from now onwards?

   

  Thanks! =)

  mild is C range.

  moderate to severe is E range.

  it's all depends on the hospital specialist memo...

  no specialist memo, no talk...

  Qn 1:

  i was told to wait 2 months before checking ns.sg for my new pes status.

  but the question is, which section of the ns.sg do i check?

  will they send you an email or do you check your pes status from the very first page that they show to you after you log in?

  Qn 2:

  If I have a history of medical eye problem caused by riffle (problem pop up after I clean the riffle), and i'm stil suffering the after-effects that never seems to heal, would i be able to request for a down-pes to be permanently excused from fire-arms?

  I had persistant conjunctivitis over 2 months period during my NSF, after which, the problem was solved, but the eye discharge type never once return back to normal (even after ORD), instead of those that will dry up at the corner of the eye lids, my are those sticky, wet discharge, usually hidden (spread out unevenly) along the primeter of my eye lids (bottom part) to date, am i elgible to request for medical down-pes to avoid a repeat of the same issue?

  Do I need to get specialist letter (of recommendation) before I go back to for new medical review appointment for down-pes request?

  U need to get a specialist letter from a psychiatrist. Then the MO will decide. No specilaist letter no talk.

  thanks for the link, now i know where to click.

  Btw, another question popped up.

  Why is it that my new Pes Status from MMI got a expiry date of July 2012? I thought downpes is supposed to be permanent instead of a temporary status of C2L9?

  How to get a permanent status of C9 so need not worry about IPPT since it will worsen my spine condition.

  No PES status can be 3 months, 6 months or 1 year temporary downgrade. Yours if gt expiry date means temporary PES status. When expires if condition never recover bring memo most likely get Permanent PES grading. When ur pes status expires get a specialist memo stating the problem is permanent then Permanent PES status le.

  Don't declare if they find out u will be in trouble. Everything must declare truthfully. I think u might get pes C to pes E.
