0 Hotdigitty Posted January 21, 2022 Author Share Posted January 21, 2022 Thank for the response. I used my earned sick days so I do no see what the problem would be. What is OPM and how do I apply? The VA does not always do the right thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Hotdigitty Posted January 22, 2022 Author Share Posted January 22, 2022 It sounds like you are accusing me of being dishonest. I stated that my Dr. placed me on FMLA leave for my service-connected disabilities. IMO if someone stated that it would be obvious that the Dr. was made aware. Beside read up on FMLA before making comments about. Knowledge is power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is OPM and how do I apply? The VA does not always do the right thing. You need to go to your electronic personnel file, you need your CAC card in order to be able to access the system. From there you can the numbers and information you need. When I decided to do it I did it within a week. Mind you, so you know this is not a fast process and I had many an issue getting to the information without hostile WS supervisor being on my case. What you are interested in is disability retirement through OPM. You need your VA benefits letter, an application to SSDI, because you are currently working you will be denied when you apply, this is a good thing, as you need that denial in the application in order to file for OPM disability retirement. It's a pain stalking process if you let it be. By the numbers, and step by step. You will end up where you are wanting to go. Folks on here genuinely want to help. There is no need to get defensive or for that matter accusatory. We have been down this road and are only here to help. Take things with a grain of salt. Breathe and calm down. Just my opinion and only trying to help you through the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Employees have the right to take FMLA leave for their own serious health conditions. This should not be a serious issue. It may be smart to quote the FAQ (in a lay statement) from the department of la

Rivet No, no you most certainly can get OPM disability and VA at the same time. You can't get OPM and OWCP at the same time usually. If you get SSDI and OPM they mak
