I was paid my severance January of this year. I asked my tax professional and he was clueless on what to do. So since I am still within the year, the form 1040x is the way to go? I was 0% USAF and 100% P&T with the VA and actually had my official VA info before I was paid my severance but they...

That's what I am currently trying to figure out how to do

Yes, I will take any forms that you can send my way. I will send you a message with my email. Ron is correct, I was paid my severance money fairly close to 1 month post separation and am already receiving my VA compensation. Granted I called and stayed on top of both DFAS, my servicing finance...

So I received my disability severance pay last week and it was taxed ( should have received $140K, but got $107k). However this information is not listed on my W2 from DFAS and I have my official VA letter stating I am 100% P&T. How do I recoup this? Is it a 1040X from the IRS, or is it...

It is, but it's also a product of in past they used to garnish the severance check payback by a lot. Now they base it on what conditions the VA rated you for. So in my situation the process and system works great, but for many others it's a giant pain. Overall for all of us going through this...

So I would have to pay back 10% every month from the VA money, which would mean that I would have to live forever to pay off the full severance

I am too. The ODC said a lot of folks get confused on the whole "pay it back part" and as far as appealing it goes he said I would be crazy given that I have everything to lose, and only the status of "retired" to gain. He said my situation is equal to seeing a real unicorn in the wild, and it...

Ok so here is some new learned knowledge. I am taking my severance pay which is approx. $140K. My unfit condition that is separating me was rated at 0 by the VA. However the VA has rated me at 100% disabled. What does this mean? This means that I do NOT have to pay back a single red cent of...

It stung a lot, but I would be lying if this kind of "treatment" wasn't how it's been like for my 16 years. Honestly the 100 p/t frome the VA is actually going to be more beneficial than what the Air Force would give considering this wasn't combat related. The big decision is to accept the...

I sent an email to the ODC asking their opinion since the referred condition was a 0, but it has caused all sort of other issues that were rated high. So they literally rated the effects, but not the cause. My mental health stuff was rated 70 by the VA which is a lot higher than 0 for the...

Supply guy, but have spent more time in a TACP unit than I have an LRS

Air Force rated me at 0% for referred condition, VA rated me 100% permanent and total

In light of appealing the decision that comes from the IPEB, can you also request for the VA to "redo" the C&P exams? A lot of my range of motion measurements seem inaccurate due to not even being able to complete them due to pain. Also I have in my military medical records a CT scan confirming...

You will more than likely hear something from your PEBLO this week

Update 19 Sept 2022 notified that I am being medically separated I stead of retired. Feels like one giant middle finger after 16 years of service, and now I need a cane to walk. Will be talking with the ODC tomorrow as I feel that this is a giant mistake after all of the treatments I have tried...

I'm not sure, and to be honest I have not tried. I am going to focus on getting my house ready to 0ut in the market the next few days and will give my PEBLO a chance to actually do her job before I do it for her.

Update As of 15 Sept my claim is closed

I hear ya, driving has been an issue since the "hinge" movement in my leg is affected I am delayed when using pedals, but I still have to come into work daily so driving is always a risk. I have been fortunate enough to not fall down the stairs, but I have collapsed getting out of bed or...

I'm honestly worried that my DOD rating is going to be under the retirement threshold. They only listed the referred condition back in March, but since then it causing secondary and tertiary issues since the condition is my right groin/hip. Because I walk funny now, it affects my knee, hip, back...
