0 bionoce Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Had to leave my federal job also. I have no clue how OPM offset of SSDI works. Dealing with federal agencies is nauseating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 ArNG11 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 I imagine I am headed down the same path as you guys. Once I get rated correctly by the VA I may consider it. I am fighting federal workers comp at the same time and it gets frustrating. My hands are shot from my federal job. I've had six hand surgeries and still need at least 3 more to go. I also came down with an auto immune disease this past March that I believe was from my exposures to aircraft fuels being a tank rat fuel mechanic. From what I read you can collect both benefits somehow. As long as its not the same body part or illness as your military service connection you can. I'm not an expert by no means but thats what I've been getting from the regs. Fortunately the regs for Federal civil service are similar. Although one important benefit you don't get on a federal comp case is the benefit of doubt doctrine. I despise these systems that treat people like a liar. OPM is a nut case of it's own.
