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 a break in service. I was awarded 30% on the Army side and 100% P&T on the VA side. How can I get DFAS to pay me? This is what is on my orders.
