Beeger Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 My SSDI is greater than VA non-service connected 100% disability & I know there is a deduction to be taken from VA amount, but will I lose it entirely or will I be able to get a small amount from VA?

vmo Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 The monthly gross amount of your Social Security Disability or regular Social Security retirement is deducted dollar for dollar. If you have a wife, her SS/SSD (also) is deducted dollar for dollar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HadIt.com Elder Pete53 Posted January 9, 2009 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted January 9, 2009 Actually the VA will allow deductions for Medical Expenses or for being in a nursing home. So if part of your SSD check goes for medical or needed assisted living you can get some or all of your pension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
