Retroactive Pay

[LKCivi]

Not sure if I am posting in the correct forum. My apologies if I should have selected another one…

Can someone please explain to me if back pay should have been disbursed in this situation?

Date of Retirement: April 2011
VA Rating @ Retirement: 80%

Date of VA Rating Increase: July 2013
VA Rating Increase: 100%

Are retroactive payments for the difference between the dates owed? So that would be 20% between April 2011-2013.

Hello @LKCivi ,

Using your info…

If your rating increase had an effective date of July 2013 and did not cite a retroactive effective date of April 2011, there would be no retroactive VA compensation for 2011 - 21013.

Note: If there had been a retro date, the diff would be 100% and 80% RATES , not a flat 20%.
