You need to make a new post, this is someone else’s post and a different topic. What’s weighing against you, no combat award. PTSD is very hard to get without PH and other combat awards.

As title says looks like like the FY 2026 budget and NDAA Maj Richard Star act has traction. Bipartisan support, Contact your congressional reps. I contacted all 3 of my reps. This would impact about 50k veterans who are getting taxed by having their CRSC reduced. The text seems to read if...

https://www.congress.gov/members/find-your-member Write and call all 3 of your congressional representatives. very problematic because we are also at the mercy of the Department of Veterans affairs as a VA rating is a requirement for CRSC! So we are back to penalizing veterans for delays...

Thanks for getting the memo

Congrats, looks like you’re following a similar trajectory. Check mypay, see if you have the CRSC tab. The retro pay and monthly pay will be there when they process. The backpay actually showed up in my pay before the bank by about 3 days. My first regular payment lands on the 1st. My guess...

Well yeah I would like to see this policy and this doesn’t align with what the Army posted a month ago and will likely end up back in courts if so. https://www.hrc.army.mil/content/CRSC%20(Combat-Related%20Special%20Compensation)

Should be soon, may miss this month if there is no pay statement for the first. 92 days is pretty dang good. I feel bad and have concerns for the Navy. Someone to put the Navy CRSC board on their congressional representatives radar.

Lol sorry, I didn’t claim IBS, you need to have served in the Persian gulf, needs to have no clear causation, needs to be functional in nature not structural. Ironically I was Initially seeking CRSC for IBS, but a colonoscopy found structural issues. So there’s the catch, you will almost...

-25 AUG CRSC statement on DFAS shows regular monthly payment. Online calculator was off by +$4, not too shabby.

Weigh your options. I know you came here for help. You have to self assess. Lot of vets convince themselves they are owed, many are correct, many are not. CRSC seems a lot more stringent than the VA. They need objective verifiable evidence. Private doctors, exams, buddy letters, yeah that shtick...

Lot to unpack here, did you try NVLSP? You have to apply and sure especially after Soto they are now well know and getting inundated. Worth a shot.

You don’t necessarily have to be deployed…

Since this thread is more active than mine. Backpay hit 16 AUG for me. Still haven’t gotten regular payment. So looks like front pay does not always land as fast as backpay. The Army is doing amazing. The Navy needs to get their ish together.

-16 AUG, backpay hit bank account. About 18 months which is correct. Actually got backpay before the front pay. DFAS said should get first payment when the September Money goes out.

The case isn’t settled quite yet. If you look at the Rudisill timeline, which was also a remand as well, 8 months.

DFAS told me 547, online calculator said 551 so yeah all close.

The DFAS rep didn’t take my info, and didn’t press. So she didn’t look at anything. I figure if first payment doesn’t hit 1 September I will call. My letter was dated 25th, I know DFAS monthly cutoff is about a week before end of Month, I probably missed it by a day or 2. Again no problem. I...

Last part of your timeline seems unreal, but maybe not. I filed about two weeks after you and got my approval letter a week after yours. But looks like I may be waiting a bit on pay since I missed the August cutoff. I called DFAS they said the standard 90 days for backpay audit. Hour timeline is...

GERD if functional and was granted based on presumption as should be stated in VA rating. Bronchitis same. The others I think will be tougher but not impossible. Some take the VA approach with CRSC and throw everything at the wall and see what sticks others just apply for what they think...
