Here is a maybe stupid question and if anyone can shed some light on this mess.
I am a chapter 61 retiree (DEC 2013 PDRL) retired at 90% disability all caused as a direct result of armed conflict, as an O-3E.
I am 100% totally and permanently disabled by the VA.
Yes, I have a CRSC of 100%...
Hello all, I'm active-duty Air Force with 3 years down and 10 months left on my current contract. I was deployed to a combat zone and was trapped inside an aircraft that caught on fire and due to extreme smoke inhalation, I have been diagnosed with Asthma, sleep apnea and PTSD. (still being...
First I would like to thank everyone that contributes to this forum. I am relying on you SME’S for a little clearance.
Army Reservist
8 active
9 reserve
Title 32 Mil Tech
I am rated 90% total VA
70% for the MEB qualifying issue
There are so many different outcomes and situations I’m not...
I have 13+ years of active duty time.
I am currently a reservist with 16 years of qualifying service.
I also currently am rated at 70% by the VA. So I am receiving "Veteran with Spouse $1,861.28" for essentially 11 months out of the year since about a month is withheld due to receiving 36 days...
Hey guys! Question, because I don't understand these CRSC calculations with my situation. I don't even know if applying would be worth my time. I am 50%DoD and 80%VA PDRL... I served 12 years, 6 months on active duty. I am authorized $2076.00 for DoD retirement but I make more off VA disability...
Active Duty USAF with 17 1/2 years in. I just had an MEB and chose IDES. I received 40% DoD/100% VA P&T. I only have 2 1/2 more years to get to 20 so I am applying for a Limited Assignment Status (LAS) to get CRDP. If that’s approved, I will have a final MEB at 19 years. I want to keep my 100%...
Hello everyone, I am looking for clarification in my future pay (I looked all over these Forms). I hope someone WAS in my situation (AGR w/National Guard)and can tell me what they received....Last month received my 199, and I accepted its findings w/o wanting to appeal Discharge date is in...
I hate to do this, but after reading all of the other posts that seem similar to mine, think I am more confused than before.
Summary of myself:
USN
TDRL after 20 years of AD service, due to Instrumentality of War
DOD 50%
VA 100%
Receiving both CDRP and VA Benefit payments
My question is...
Quick backstory. 16 years active duty, will be placed on the TDRL on 14 June 2021, 90% combined DOD and 100% VA. 70% of the DOD is confirmed to be as a direct result of combat, noted on my orders and cannot be reduced.
I was informed that my retirement and disability pay will be offset. Does...

YOS=33 Good years with 5,561 points, or 38.6% of pay ($3,685.50)
50% DOD Disabled

My FPEB Counsel told me that I should get 75% DoD based on my medical issues, but because my condition was not identified at the VA...
I’ve been following a lot of post where mbrs are assisted with CRSC/CRDP. I’m having a hard time understanding the benefits of medical retirement at 20yrs if you qualify for either CRSC/CRDP.
It’s not like one will receive the max multiplier of 75%. So if I have the option of regular retirement...

I was medically retired at 30% from the AF with a VA rating of 70% 27 Nov 2015. I signed a full disability waiver that went into effect 1 Jan 2016 in order to collect the VA disability pay over my retirement. I have only received 1 full retirement payment for Dec 2015 but and that was paid...
Hello All, I have been retired since 10/31/2017 and still have not received retirement pay. DFAS is telling me that due to the 1204 code, I am not entitled to CRDP. Please help! I have my 20 year letter with 23 good years for retirement, 14+ years active duty, and 35 years under contract without...
So...... I've signed my 199 and found out my reserve unit has not been cutting orders for my medical appointments, training or therapy appointments like they said they were doing for the past three years.
I'm 100% P&T VA. I was told they were only cutting orders for points since the VA takes the...
Greetings All,
I have 18 years of service and am undergoing a MEB. I am aware of how we get paid as a medically separated service member. I WILL only receive VA disability and NOT military retirement pay. I disagree with it, as many others in my situation would. I do NOT qualify for Concurrent...
Trying to understand CRDP/CRSC, but getting very conflicting information by multiple people. Going through MEB right now, got my ratings back. My referred condition is not combat related (sleep apnea) rated 50% PDR. Overall VA rating is 100%. I do have some combat related conditions that states...
Hi all!
I've lurked for over a year, so thank you for all of the valuable information! After almost 3 years, my fiance has finally received his PDBR decision - his Army medical discharge was upgraded to retired at 40%, retro to date of discharge based on the DJD and the DDD. DFAS says it takes...
I was just retired PDRL after just over 20 years of service, with my final VA rating at 60%. I had taken CSB/REDUX at 15 years, and was told by DFAS that I was not eligible for CRDP because I had taken CSB. I have not been able to find this in any regulation. On the DFAS FAQ for CSB/REDUX states...
