    medically disqualified worries

    First, let me say that some of my info may be out-dated, but I'll pass it on to help you get going in the right direction. Definitely file for VA Disability Comp and SSDI now. You can file for SSDI on the internet, and VA through VONAPP on the internet. If you have problems with that process...

    Heres a good one...

    Just curious. Were you receiving TDRL or PDRL, or just a severance? Are you receiving VA Disability? In an odd situation also, so I just wondered what they had you covered under following medical separation. Thanks.

    VA Disability pay + TDRL Whats the truth?

    Can I receive TDRL while receiving VA Disability Compensation while they are figuring out whether to medically retire me or not? I have 20+ years, and 70% plus UI for 100% VA comp. CRDP, not CRSC if found unfit for duty. Thanks.

    Anyone had their MEDCON orders backdated?

    MEB/PEB at Landstuhl? Process for Reserve/Inactive Soldiers?

    I apparently have to go through the ABCMR process like you, and having them find me retroactively unfit for duty could cause VA Comp to backdate to date of 20 year release or date of disability because I was denied the appropriate counseling and there was administrative error(this gives me an...
