Has any other veteran not gotten paid disability when they normally get paid?

I usually get paid between the 25th and 28th of each month but I haven't gotten paid yet. Anyone else having these problems?

Probably just due to Easter and banker's hours. Based on your bank you can see an incoming deposit online. However, it may help to call the bank and ask them if you have a pending deposit that they can see. Banks are different and some banks hold your money longer than others before releasing it. If your bank does not see the money, well maybe something is wrong.

A1C Conner Sturdevant I normally am paid on the last day of the month or day before the last day. I hope this is not the beginning of a systemic issue and hope you receive your pay soon.

I haven't had that problem, A1C Conner Sturdevant. Give it until the end of the month and then contact their customer support office.

I'm always paid on the last day of the month unless it's a weekend or federal holiday. Never had it show up after the 1st though unless I was still doing hard checks (and then it could be as late as the 5th).

I normally is the 4 Wednesday of Each month for me; since I am both retired and my comp is rolled into one.

Now; if you are speaking on SSDI, Securty Payment That's on the 1st of each month not contingent on the following: 1st being on a Saturday; or a Holiday; which means the previous business Sir. Also contact your last bank just in case you changed the SSA will the Routing info that's on front of check list .

If you haven't done so already, check ebenefits online and see if there is a notation in there regarding payment.

Disability Compensation is paid on the last working day of the month, Military Retirement, on the other hand is paid on the first working day of the month. Both are usually disbursed to your financial institution around the 28th of the month depending on whether that date falls on the weekend or on a holiday, so, it is pretty much up to the individual financial institution as to when they credit it to your account so long as they credit it to be available by the actual pay date (last working day or first working day of the month as indicated above).

I've not had this problem myself, but I know a few Veterans who have had this problem. In their case, their benefits were/are being paid by the VA. When they inquired about the issue they were told that since they hadn't made their 6 month check up appointments for X times, the benefit had been suspended. I'm not suggesting that this is why your benefit hasn't been disbursed yet, but if you are getting comp/disability pay through the VA it may be worth contacting them. If you do, contact the Regional Center, not the Hospital/Clinic. I would also follow the advice in the other comments you've received. All of it is good advice. Good luck brother.

Typically VA disability compensation is paid on the 1st of the month. If the 1st falls on a weekend, it is paid on the Friday. Same is true if the 1st falls on a Monday which is also a national holiday, ie gov't holiday. My bank receives the electronic VA files the day before the official "pay" day, so it goes in my account early. So in my case could be on the 26th in Feb is the day the bank puts it in my account or the 28th in a 30 day month when Monday is the 1st also.
