Concurrent IU Pay and Retirement Pay

Rate this question

Question

I was concurrently receiving 70% disability and my retirement pay.  I was just awarded unemployability and according to the approval letter it states since my disability is more than my retirement pay I will now not be receiving my retirement pay anymore.  I just see the disability pending for the EOM for Jan.  This is a big difference in pay, even if I include the tax free benefits I will now receive.  DFAS states I should receive both.  Did anything change recently, that I don't know of?  If this is the case can I decline the IU?  Thanks for the input and actually still surprised that got approved.

You're entitled to your military retirement and VA TDIU.
