Hi All,
I've just finished with doing my last and final Navy (5 years out, from being placed on TDRL) a few days ago.
I am rated at 90% by the VA.
I am 40 percent rated by the DoD, but two eval doctors have strong opinions about that being higher now.
I did not serve 20 years. I am receiving pay from the VA at 90 percent.
What i'm trying to figure out is:
a. What would happen if I was separated with severance/ as I am already being paid by the VA. I know the VA has to recoup that -- but what does that mean for me, and the pay I already receive? Anything?
b. If placed on permanent disability, and due to be married in a year -- can that person receive Tricare benefits as well? Also, besides the awesome healthcare, anything else I should know about in terms of benefits?
Thanks in advance!
