I have been in the reserves for a year but I just received a letter from the VA stating I have 80% disability due to my active duty time. If I choose to get out for medical reasons, will I have to go through medboard? Most importantly, will I have to pay back the bonus. It was a lump sum for 6 years and I already received it.

I&#39;m not an RC expert, but I do not that bonuses aren&#39;t recouped for medical, and that you can be in the reserves with a VA disability rating.

I received 70% and had none recouped from my EAB, although I did get taken for a ride by taxes. The only way you would need to pay back your bonus would be if you voluntarily terminated your contract early or you were discharged under conditions other than honorable. Also, repayment COULD occur if you act against terms of your contract, for example, if you go Warrant or Green to Gold when/if your contract stipulates you are to be an enlisted soldier.

There should be one in your area, as they are all over the place. If not them then try for American Legion SSG Donna Carrigan Wed, 29 May 2019 21:14:00 -0400 2019-05-29T21:14:00-04:00 2019-05-29T06:05:27-04:00
