Very much appreciated. Thank you, Ron!

Thank you Ron. It is good to know the why the figures are the way they are. Thank you, thank you, thank you. If TDIU is declared by the VA, does that restore the retired pay to full amount? Apologies for the slip in question.

I think I am picking up what you are putting down, thank you! The 90% DoD rating (capped at 75% of high three) has yet to come in to play I guess. As always, thank you for the prompt expertise!

It does. It states $2780 is my CRDP amount. Total monthly compensation is $3865 minus a $1085 VA Waiver. I'm curious how those figures were computed though. Retired pay is $3865 (minus the $1085), VA is $3885, and I am receiving both monthly. Sorry about the plethora of numbers thrown in here, I...

Have my retirement age knocked down to 50 years and 9 months, but am receiving retired pay from DFAS right now.

Hello most helpful forum on the internet! DFAS and VA can't/won't tell me how they are coming up with VA waiver amount after being medically retired. I'm hoping someone much smarter than I can shed some light on it and I thank you in advance for any and all help with this. Retired with a 90%...

FWIW, I was denied UI upon being medically retired. (PDRL at 90%) The reason was UI requires availability and the ABILITY to work. Depending on your state, you may have to apply and interview for jobs in order to receive any benefits.

Hope this helps someone else. It was AD that screwed me. The NG is actively assisting me in the fight to get the Title 10 back. They turned me on to some regs: 10 U.S. Code § 1168 - Discharge or release from active duty: limitations (a)A member of an armed force may not be discharged or...

The Fiscal Year '23 Title 10 orders starting on 01 October were allotted to me and when the retirement orders dropped on 29 September, the purse string holders pulled them back because "We won't issue paydays for you to be on terminal leave." This leaves me without Tricare and pay (orders are...

Turns out retirement orders for us Guardsmen/Reservists are NOT pay orders.

There is some confusion on whether my retirement orders are pay orders or not. My Title 10 orders I have been on during the entire MEB end 30 October (today is 29 October) and no one can tell me if I will be paid until my retirement date. I have 58 days of leave, 15 days of out-processing and 20...

Hello all, thank you for the wealth of information shared with everyone. Does anyone know the difference between MEDCON and Title 10 orders for Guard/Reserve? Specifically I am asking about Tricare, pay, benefits, counting towards the countdown from age 60, etc. Any and all help is appreciated...

Thank you, Ron!

Anyone able to shine some light on this process, Mind running through a scenario to help out us part timers? 25 good years in the Air Guard As of 24 January 2021, 5809 active duty points 7055 retirement points 7153 total points (includes years I had over 365 points, so probably not used for...
