I just got advise to appeal my separation on a 20% given to me from my MEB army. I just dont know what will be ok to do because I got 100% P&T thru the VA and my severance pay VA never recouped cuz by the rules or regulation in my case I didnt have to pay that money back. Now with that being said, should I fight for my medical retirement? and if is yes, what will the pros and cons?
Hello,
Reference: DoD 7000.14-R Financial Management Regulation Volume 7B, Chapter 4 --->LINK
040602. Recoupment of DSP When the Secretary concerned approves a recommendation from the Physical Disability Board of Review (PDBR) to award military disability retirement, the DFAS must take action to recoup any disability severance pay previously paid to that member. Recoupment will be consistent with the parameters established in section 0410, except as noted in subparagraphs 040602.A and B. A. In most cases, members entitled to disability severance pay will also qualify for VA disability compensation. In order to avoid duplicate collection, the DFAS will reduce the recovery amount of disability severance pay by any amount already separately recovered by VA through reduction of VA disability compensation. In such cases, the amount deducted by the VA from the disability compensation will reduce the gross amount of disability severance pay to be recouped by the Department of Defense (DoD).
