So having read about the problems encountered by others, I emailed the JPAC to request a medical discharge pension forecast as I am on PAS. I explained about the issues that others have experienced and how I hoped that an early forecast might prevent any issues when my med discharge is confirmed. To my surprise the JPAC have agreed to give me an early pension forecast working on an estimated discharge date and Tier 1 benefits. I also sent them a forecast obtained from the standard online pension calculator, as any med pension forecast should be slightly better than one for a standard exit. If the med pension forecast is less than the standard pension forecast, then I would hope that some alarm bells start ringing in the JPAC. Or am I expecting too much from them??!!
I'll update you all once the med pension forecast arrives in the post
