January 1 2013 Disability Direct Deposit Date?

[les]

I recently went to 60% compensation and trying to figure out the real day the direct deposit will go into my bank. I ask that because of the holidays. It screws me up because sometimes we get payed a day or two sooner around a holiday. Thanks for helping me and others!!!

From ebenefits:

Payment Dates: VA pays benefits on the first of each month for the previous month. But if the first falls on a weekend or holiday, payment is the last business day of the previous month. Example: In 2010, May 1 is a Saturday, so benefits would be paid on April 30 (Friday).

It should be deposited on Monday, 12/31/12. The money is deposited w/your financial institution a few days prior and many credit unions will post a few days early but most banks use the money for a few days, for free, before depositing in your acct. It is possible it could be deposited on Friday, 12/28 but not likely.

Thanks for the come backs! I'm not sure if the va counts Monday the 31 as a holiday which would get the money deposited on Dec, 29Th. Thanks again! LES
