When seeking to correct military records through the Board for Correction of Military Records (BCMR), you typically have three years from the date you discovered (or should have discovered) the error or injustice. However, the board may waive this deadline if it’s in the “interest of justice.” For discharge review requests, you have up to 15 years from your discharge date to file with the Discharge Review Board (DRB). If you’ve missed these deadlines, it’s still important to file as soon as possible. Contact our team for guidance on your timeline to file by attending a consultation.
