CRSC Calculation help

[moon52]

after doing a lot of research and calculations, I am getting conflicting information and would like some help.


RAS : 3385
VA: 2725

DOD Percentage: 70%
YOS: 10 Y 6 MO

Estimated CRSC Award Amount: 70%

Currently receive : 637 dollars before SRB deduction from DOD retirement.

I'm not the CRSC expert but based on your numbers, I believe your maximum CRSC payment is roughly $888. So aim for 50% CRSC.
That number is before SBP, of course.
Again, I'm not a pro at CRSC so I'd wait for more answers.

So would that amount be on top of what I already receive for DOD retirement?

No.
You are currently receiving VA pay correct? If so, that also means you are currently not receiving your DOD retirement due to you serving less than 20 years (or 15 with Marine tera).
If approved, your pay would be $2725 (VA) + $888 (CRSC) = $3613.

Now rereading your original post, I see you mentioned SRB. I thought it said SBP.
I'm not sure how and if SRB ties into retirement pay and CRSC to be honest. The above was the estimate I came up with for a standard medical retirement with CRSC approved.

No. I am currently receiving both. RAS minus my Va is what I currently receive. Medical retirement is that matters.

your crsc based on your numbers will be 600/month

Alot of people forget that crsc pay + residual retired pay cannot exceed the years of service portion of your retirement. this is the max you can receive from crsc. To receive more, you would have to have an increase in your va award. This would allow you to receive up to 1260(this is your max crsc in any scenario).
