i am retired with 21 years service. I just received my first VA check today (reg monthly amount) for my 80% disability. It was for 1 month.
My question is where does the backpay come from? I know when you are retired they have to do an audit, and since I am qualified to receive all my retirement pay because I have over 50% disability, and if I understand correctly, I should receive the full monthly VA amount from my filing date.
I just don’t know where/who the backpay will come from, and also any idea as to how long it usually takes for the backpay to arrive? It’s been 3 months since approval, and the backpay would be for 6 months.
