BACK PAY: Does VA give retro back pay all at once or do they break it down...I used a va retro calculator and in low end and high end scenarios I came up with $40,000 plus....7 year back pay on one condition 5 years on another..long story short called VA because after waiting 2 plus weeks from receiving award letter they stated I had a payment of only half that being scheduled for this week couldn't give any info on any future if any payments
