0 toddt Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 There are several "Special Monthly Compensation" (SMC) "awards". SMC-K is for ED. Here is a break down of all of the SMC categories: https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/38/3.350 The VA is not going to award SMC-K twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 HadIt.com Elder Philip Rogers Posted May 5, 2015 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted May 5, 2015 The VA can award more than one "k" award, one for each disability that applies to the "k" award. For ED you only get one "k" award, unless it's caused by deformed genitalia, in which case there could be a second award(just guessing on that, tho). pr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 barbie 5551 Posted May 6, 2015 Author Share Posted May 6, 2015 I thought he would get one K for ED and one for BKA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 HadIt.com Elder Philip Rogers Posted May 6, 2015 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted May 6, 2015 Sorry, I don't know what BKA is but, I believe, the VA can award up to three "k" awards. I believe after three "k" awards they award the next level of SMC but I'm not positive.pr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
