History of Rejection by a Military Service

Your AME will inquire about the place, cause, and date of rejection and enter the information in their Item 60. It is helpful to your AME if you can provide all relevant military documents. If a delay of more than 14-calendar days is expected, the AME will transmit FAA Form 8500-8 to the FAA with a note specifying what documents will be forwarded later. Disposition will depend upon whether the medical condition still exists or whether a history of such a condition requires denial or deferral under the FAA medical standards.
