I felt very ill informed when it came to deciding if I should have my VA comp or military pay with held. There were a lot of details left out about how they work. I unfortunately found out the hard way, when the notification arrived that I owed the Government $18,000. It is a lesson learned and I will need to figure out a way to pay it off. I may need to get another part time job and I do not want to but I am not sure I have any other choice. I really wish the VA and Military pay would get their people together and discuss how to do these options so that no one else gets into this situation.

Yes there is a disconnect between the military and the VA. MAJ Ken Landgren Sat, 19 Sep 2015 20:22:04 -0400 2015-09-19T20:22:04-04:00 2015-09-19T11:07:57-04:00
