Maybe I have overlooked these threads, but I cannot seem to find good solid information regarding whether I would qualify for either of these benefits.
I just received my ratings (70% DOD TDRL and 100% VA). They gave me TDRL due to a 50% PTSD rating which they related to combat.
That said, I have 10 years in, just finishing up the MEB process now as I just got my ratings and on my way out the door shortly. That said, I will be receiving the VA disability pay at the 100% level which is great, but am I eligible for additional benefits/money from the DOD as well (besides Tricare)?
It is very confusing to try to figure out the offset, and all the conflicting information that I have found online.
If anyone has gone through this and knows, based on my example above (10 years TIS--enlisted active duty, 70% DOD, 100% VA), what I can be looking at, please let me know.
Thank you.
