Full Benefits for Disabled Veterans

This act aims to ensure that veterans with service-connected disabilities can receive both their military retired pay and disability compensation from the Department of Veterans Affairs, without one reducing the other. This means more veterans will be able to keep their full benefits, improving their financial well-being.
Key points
Veterans with service-connected disabilities will be able to receive both full military retired pay and disability compensation.
The act expands eligibility for concurrent receipt of both benefits to a broader group of veterans, including those with lower disability ratings.
Changes are effective as of January 1, 2021, applying to payments from that date forward.
