If a Veterans gets TDIU that 100% rating makes the Veteran eligible for college loan forgiveness. When a college loan is forgiven it counts as income and must be filed on a tax return. Since a Veteran isn't allowed to make above poverty level could college loan forgiveness cause the VA to misinterpret the income reporting requirement as possible work and propose reduction in TDIU? Say the Veteran was forgiven $30,000 and reported it to the IRS. Now the IRS has on file that the Veteran made $30,000 that year. When the VA checks Social Security records and sees the Veteran reported $30,000 in income while on TDIU couldn't they interpret that as the Veteran having worked? Anyone ever hear of any problems with this?
