@RonG, I have a quick question regarding CRSC... As I was looking to see if VA rates would be increased this year, and if so, by how much, that got me thinking - is our CRSC entitlement adjusted with inflation or is it just a set amount forever? Are you able to help provide context to inform me...

@RonG, thank you so much for your help and insight! What a crazy, convoluted process this is! You mentioned CRSC will likely begin in ~ 30-60 days, so how does that work with regard to timeline, as DFAS is showing I have a $0.00 entitlement currently A/O 9/12/2023, right? Will the CRSC tab...

Update!! Hi there @RonG and @Provis I received a bit of a stressful account/payment update email from DFAS this evening…it appears my DoD offset is going from $947.38to $0.00? Are you able to help me understand why this is? Based on prior comments, how long do you think it will take for...

Thank you so much, Ron. I am planning to accept the 60% DoD offer based on these calculations and hoping to be done once and for all. Side note - it is crazy that a 20% drop in DoD retiree benefits can only resort in a $45 difference or so. Is that solely due to the longevity portion helping to...

Thanks, Ron - sorry for the confusion. Considering I am currently 80% DoD, the numbers I provided you must be at 75% (capped), which would make my high three $6,804. Are you able to help compute with the following new figures below? Thank you in advance! CRSC Estimate 1. My high three average...

Thank you, Ron. I am currently receiving $1,279.11/mo from DoD, so it looks to be a difference of $116.41 based on your calculations. Here is what I just pulled in from MyPay. Does this help to clarify anything? Is that higher or lower than the numbers I provided for your calculations? GROSS...

Thank you so much for the quick response, Ron! Just to clarify, your DFAS figure of 1162.70 is for the 60% or 80% DoD rating? I was told by my Wounded Warrior rep, if I dropped to the 60% rating, I would potentially lose some (if not all) of my DoD entitlement. However, you mentioned 1162.70...

Hello again, Please see below for assistance calculating a CRSC estimate - thank you in advance! CRSC Estimate 1. My high three average is $6,399/month 2. My DoD disability rating is 60% (PDRL) / could you also help me compute for 80% (TDRL)? **I haven’t accepted the new rating of 60% yet...

That is who wrote the response, my assigned disability lawyer. I’m trying to figure out if going through all of that is worth it and if I am awarded it, how much would that affect my pay.

So, I’ve posted once before regarding my current IDES situation, but here’s spark notes and an update from the FPEB: AD Air Force O-3 (O-4 select), 9 years 2 months AD, stationed OCONUS, 80% DoD TDRL // 100% VA P&T. I requested a hearing to upgrade my PTSD to Combat Related “YES” and I received...

I was awarded 80% DoD (TDRL) and 100% (P&T) this past week. PTSD came in at 70% (unstable) Chronic Back came in at 40% (permanent) On my AF 356, combat zone/during combat operations is marked YES for PTSD, but combat related is market NO. I sent all of my combat-related evidence to my ODC...

Ron, Thank you so much for taking the time to respond. Please see below required for CRSC calculation: 1. My high three average is $6399/month 2. My DoD disability rating is 80% 3. My active duty time: 9 years and 1 month 4. My VA compensation is 100%, $3321.85, with my spouse 5. I have...

Good morning from Europe! Long time lurker here; this forum has been an incredible resource throughout my IDES/MEB process (since July 2020 :eek:), especially considering I am Active Duty Air Force in an OCONUS location. I apologize for the long post, but I wanted to be as thorough as...
