Also I was just fortunate I heard about it early due to the RSOs ( Retirement Service Officers ) and even my PEBLO was telling us all about it during the IDES / MEB process.

Mike T’s info from Army’s CRSC department about how they are using the application date for the Aug 20 soft guideline has been right and I haven’t heard anyone yet that has an application date before that not receiving their backpay. So hopefully everything good so far. While the “six-year...

My backpay was in the low 5 digits. I was medically retired just January this year.

I just recently got my CRSC backpay last week and mine was for the effective date and NOT the filing date

Congrats man. I knew yours was about to come soon. Not sure about the cutoff dates. You can always ask DFAS about your status. Their number is on the letter or when you go to mypay and click the CRSC tab. Also you can do “Ask DFAS” function online as well. For me, DFAS only received my letter...

Oh yeah. Damn. I see your point and that makes sense.

I am also hopeful that it is the application date. While the one you highlighted seems to say otherwise, the one just below it seems to indicate that it is the application date. “the effective date for CRSC payments is the date on which the Secretary concerned first received the completed...

I had the same issue for me late last year when I was going through the MEB/PEB process. I even opened a trouble ticket with VA and nothing came out of it. From what was explained to me, since I wasn’t a veteran yet, it wasn’t going to populate. For my peers that was going through the IDES...

“effective with claims received by the respective branch o/a 20 August 2025” Crazy how soon this took effect.

Thanks. I hope so and was pretty happy how fast it took. For some reason, I’ve always had the CRSC tab for months now but nothing is populated yet as expected. Good info. I’ll be on the lookout on mypay for the early info on backpay. Thanks. Yeah. It still has the “Six Year Statue of...

CRSC Timeline - Army This board has been really helpful and just wanted to post my timeline since seeing michael.collins01’s and scottymotech’s post was very helpful and informative. Timeline: May 21, 2025 - CRSC claim has been received by HRC July 20, 2025- Received HRC 60 day email. Aug...

Also they have an excel worksheet here to help with your CRSC calculation

I can’t help you with the CRSC since I am navigating this as well but if your proposed ratings has the following blurb below “For Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) benefits, proposed eligibility to Dependents' Educational Assistance under 38 U.S.C. chapter 35.” This means you are P&T. I...
