Hey guys. TDRL ET1 here. Just got a letter from big Navy with results from PEB. I went to my appointment in May, and they have decided that I am rated at 10% and will be separated with severance pay. I have a couple questions.
1. I know the VA will recoup the severance. My total VA disability at this point (including multiple medical issues.... not just the one I went to PEB for) is 80%. Will they recoup at the 80% rate or at the 10% rate for the new disability?
2. Has anyone gone to a formal board and had the decision changed?
3. When they recoup the severance pay, will I receive the 80% total disability from teh VA, or will they reduce it to 10% as well?
4. Is there a way to dispute other data on the findings? They list me as 16yrs 2mo, whereas I actually have 16yrs 9mo. This will mean the difference of a year in severance.
I am sure I will have more questions soon, but any help is appreciated.
Thanks everyone.
