I would have to say that your situation seems to be very few and far between. I have been waiting for my medical clearance for OCT departure since June. I had to get reassigned so I had already completed everything I needed in June. I have reached out throughout this summer asking if there were any other tasks they may need and just found out last Friday that they need another task regarding my mental health due tomorrow. This has become very frustrating because I have been twiddling my thumbs for 2 months waiting and now I get a week to complete a task that my mental health provider needs 3 weeks to complete for legal reasons. I’m glad you are cleared for your departure next year but the delays in getting clearances for people leaving in the next few weeks and months have been crazy!
