Just curious. It is going on 9 for me. I'm about at the end of my patience rope (short to begin with). Wishing everyone the best of luck, as luck seems to be the only force guiding our applications thru (the process) or lack thereof.

Does anyone know what "Branch 3" means in reference to where your retirement application is in the review process? The OPM person told me this morning that it means I could be finalized soon. Said it was past adjudication? Could make sense bc on the Services Online I have been at "assigned to a specialist to calculate..." since early May. This is so confusing. DRP 1.0 and filed paper application.
