stevedenesha Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I think that I'd answer again because not sure what the last post says. There is no offset when you combine SSDI to VA compensation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder Pete53 Posted January 11, 2008 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted January 11, 2008 Its really pretty simple. If a Veteran gets regular disability they can get VA and SSD. Ifs its pension disability or SSI than its offset. However the VA pension will allow medical expenses to be deducted and quite a few Veterans with non service connected disability get the full amount so that they can stay in a nursing home.
