Thanks for all the detail and sharing your wife's personal experience with CRSC.

I'm still confused on both the process and the way to calculate chapter 61 and CSRC. Did your wife have to apply to receive Chapter 61 compensation, or is that automatic? I was under the impression I submitted for retirement and then DFAS determined which method was most monitarily adventagous...

Thanks. Good to know. Yes, I am eligible for early retirement. I am 57 with 9 years of CO-ADOS title 10 orders 2015-2024, so no issues there. I have all the paperwork ready to go. I'll re-engage my RSO tomorrow. Thanks again.

I am (was) an Army Reservist and am IDES complete. I was found unfit with DoD 60% combat coded. I have been medically retired, as of a week ago. My DA 199 states permanent disabiliy retired. My DD 214 shows "Retirement" and "disability - combat related". My IPPSA retirement orders show the...

I'm in a similar situation. Medically retired last week, and now have Tricare, but starting back to my CIV job in about 6 weeks. I am also a provider. Our personal experience has been more providers take BCBS, but the premium is pretty high. A lot of the providers we want to go to no longer...

I'm getting mixed signals regarding Tricare eligibility as I am set to medcailly retire next week. I am a Reservist that has been on CO-ADOS orders for 9 years and thought I had 180 days of Transitional Assistance Management Program (TAMP). I spoke with Tricare. They referred me to DEERS...

Thats really helpful. Did she still need to submit an application to her service for retirement, in order to receive CRSC?

Thats what I figured, regarding HRC. To answer your other questions: My CO-ADOS orders/deployments were from 2015-2024, back to back. So this is my first DD214 with any Title 10 codes. I have a friend's DD214 who served with me and her DD214 has the codes. But she demob'd, not medically...

Thanks, Provis. I guess the root of my question is about having the correct retirement paperwork, specifically what they need IOT verify my retirement age. In order for the Reserve Branch to verify my reduced-age eligibility, the DD214 NEEDS to include the Title 10 codes, right? (in my case...

Thanks for the response. I guess that is where I am confused. My understanding is that, as a Reservist, I am not eligible for retirement pay until age 60 unless I apply for reduced age retirement. (20 years of AD service is different than receiving 20 qualifiying years in the Reserves, but...

Looking for some guidance before I contact the Army Gray Area Retirement folks. I have completed IDES and found unfit (60% DoD, "disability, combat related"). I am 57 and have my 20-year letter. I have been on Title 10 CO-ADOS and MOB orders for the last 9 years, and therefor qualify for...
