Stpn2me Posted July 22, 2015 Author Share Posted July 22, 2015 Mountain... Yes, I am getting my monthly check. I am thankful for that. Yes, I would say don't hold your breath on the RETRO. For some reason, it takes longer for retirees to get ours. The VA rep isn't returning my calls anymore. I'm just calling him to follow up. DFAS is pretty helpful and they say it will be sent back in the next DFAS cycle dump in Aug. But then, VA tells me there's no timetable on how long they will take to cut the check. This is something I don't understand. If DFAS has done an audit and told you I owe them no money and have suggested you pay me the Retro, what else is there to do? Why does it take so long? This should be an automated process. If it comes back from DFAS, then it should be an automatic pay out to the Veteran. I am frustrated by Bureaucracy, especially bureaucracy that has no meaning...

Stpn2me Posted July 28, 2015 Author Share Posted July 28, 2015 Spoke with DFAS. Audit will definitely be done by the 20th and will be in the next upload. VA rep says he will personally process it so the RETRO hits my account once he receives it. We will see.. Andyman73 and Julie1975 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
