Yup, nine months. You can call, but it won't do you no good. All they will tell you is that they received your application, and its being processed. But I would call once a month or so just to make sure the wheels are still turning.

Yes I know CRSC is paid monthly through DFAS. But if it was me you were replying to, the VA is also tied into paying back pay for CRSC some how. Im not sure exactly how (which is why I asked my previous question), but they do for some folks. This can be shown in black and white. Just try to...

Can someone explain to me how the VA is involved with paying backpay owed to me because of my approval of CRSC? I received my first CRSC payment on April 1st. DFAS this past week told me my backpay is in just being reviewed and should completed and paid within the next 30-45 days. She said...

CRSC is for retirees who have gotten their disability due to combat. Take a look at the link provided. If it sounds like it applies to you, I would definitely apply for it. Its simple to do, takes a bit to process though. 7 months in my case. http://www.dfas.mil/retiredmilitary/disability/crsc.html

I thought i'd update this thread for anyone who may come across this for their own info in the future. I received my first CRSC payment Aril 1st. Just waiting now for the backpay now.

I put in for CRSC last summer and after almost 7 months I finally got my approval letter recently. The letter was dated Jan 20th, and I received it Feb 3rd. Can anyone tell me when I might see my first payment and when i'll get the 3 years of backpay I have coming? Much appreciated.

Good call... I found it there. Thank you. I never knew that whole section existed.

Ive seen a couple people now say that their ebenefits says what the finalized ratings are? My claim was completed a couple days ago and it says my award letter was mailed to me. But i'd obviously like to know as soon as possible what the outcome is. I don't see anywhere on Ebenefits where it...

Im posting this up here in hopes of getting some insight from those who are knowledgeable from experience. The VA finalized my rating a couple days ago. I saw on Ebenefits that the claim was closed 2 days ago and that a letter was sent out to me to show what my finalized ratings are. I tried...

I retired Aug 21st. Aug 15th I received normal pay. August 22nd, I received the prorated 7 days, pro rated clothing allowance and I received the pay for the leave I sold.

My timeline is below. Retired August 21st and im waiting on my finalized ratings. Hopefully something comes of it soon as I need to claim some new conditions. EDIT- I called the VA today to try and find out if there was anything holding my claim up (like maybe a "lost" 214) The only thing they...
