I have answered this question hundreds of times in the last 8 years, probably wrong.
I am looking at answering this for the VA purposes on 10-10 EZ and I only think I know the answer.
I was working in 2010 in the private sector, when I was 'awarded' SSDI (SS Disability) and I was 'awarded' LTD from workplace insurance carrier (it is an income % replacement when added to SS, no double dip). This LTD will disappear at 'retirement age' in their dictionary. 66+ something. I am under 65 currently.
What is my status for VA purposes? Am I retired? Am I unemployed?
I am thinking it makes a difference how I fill that in.
