0 HadIt.com Elder Philip Rogers Posted April 25, 2015 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted April 25, 2015 To the best of my knowledge, any time you receive severance, the VA will recoup any severance, you were paid, before you receive any monies. pr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 usmc1962 Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 They only reclaim if the severence disability is the same as the sc Va rated disability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 saxman Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Yes they will recoup all of it before paying you disability. I was paid SSB when I got out and they recouped all of it before I was paid any disability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 carolinian Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I got out around the beginning of last year from the Army. Since the reason I was being discharged medically they paid me a nice severance and I didn't pay any money back because the injury was combat related. My benefits started a month after I got out and I haven't missed a check since. from my understanding if its combat related your severance is tax free. The power of life and death is in the tongue.
