This question probably has probably come up many times, I am just not sure 100%. I started receiving compensation from the VA and DOD. I retired DEC 28 with 40% DOD and 90% VA, I got 725$ minus taxes from DOD and 1370$ VA tax free this month, however, the VA letter of compensation has updated to...

My claim has been completed and rated at 90% however, I have a question. im retired 40% DOD and 90% VA. does dfas payed me 40% and the 90% from the va on the compensation is not showing the full amount with dependents although dependents are listed...it only shows 1370 monthly...

Mines are complete as well, for the COE i had to mail my army disability so they could adjust it and take away the funding fee you can do that from ebenefits, I have a question...on the compensation it says the amount in dollars and not counting the retirement from the army so I am assuming they...

now that doesnt sound right, have you checked on your mypay? to see your last LES, also you should be able to access your retired pay on mypay as well it came out a few days ago. check and call defas about it

thanks for all the updates man! ill be posting my updates here as they come as well best of luck to all!

thats good news my friend!!, hopefully mine starts moving fast too. did yours go into under review before it went into preparation for decision?

my claim status has just changed to "under review" it states in ebenefits that it should go to preparing for decision if no evidence is needed, i guess this is a good thing in the sense that my claim is moving. Also, I am able to see my VA letters now before i didnt have access to them, although...

Hi, thanks for the quick response. yes I was retired with 40% dod and 90%VA. i have not received yet any letter from DFAS but i can see on mypay that my retirement pay amount is already there and mid month JAN i received 2 deposits to my account both of them very small, one was from dfas the...
