Compensation
Veterans and their families may be entitled to compensation by the government for injuries sustained during their military. The benefits are usually the form of disability or pension. There are a few important things to keep in mind when you are considering a personal injury lawsuit or settlement for a disabled veteran.
If a veteran with disabilities receives an award or settlement against the person who is at fault for their injuries, and also has an VA disability claim in the same year, then the amount of the settlement or award can be garnished from their VA payments. But, there are some limitations on this type of garnishment. First, the court must have filed a petition for the apportionment of the disability payment. Only a small portion of the monthly salary can be garnished, usually between 20 and 50 percent.
Another thing to consider is that the compensation is determined by a percentage of the veteran's disability and not on the actual earnings earned from an employment. The higher the veteran's disability score, the more compensation they will receive. Family members of survivors of disabled veterans disability lawsuits who have died of a service-related illness injuries can be eligible for a unique benefit known as Dependency Insurance Compensation (DIC).
There are many misconceptions regarding the impact of veterans' pension benefits, disability payments and other compensations from the Department of Veterans Affairs on money issues during divorce. These misconceptions can cause a difficult divorce even more difficult for veterans and their families.
Pension
Veterans Disability Pension is a tax-free financial benefit that provides veterans with disabilities incurred or aggravated during military service. It can also be accessed by surviving spouses and dependent children. Congress determines the pension amount and it is determined by disability level, severity of disability, and dependents. The VA has regulations that define the method of calculating assets in order to determine eligibility for Pension benefits. Generally, the veteran's house as well as personal possessions and vehicle are not considered. the remaining assets of the veteran that are not exempt must be less than $80,000 to show financial need.
It is widely believed that the courts are able to garnish VA disability payments to pay court-ordered child support or the obligation to pay spousal maintenance. It is crucial to understand that this isn't the case.
The courts can only take away a veteran's pension if they have waived their military retired pay in order to get an amount of compensation for an impairment. 38 U.S.C. Section SS5301 (a) is the statute that governs this.
It is important to note that this does not apply to CRSC or TDSC pay, since these programs are specifically designed to provide higher levels of income for disabled veterans. It is important to remember, too, that a veteran’s personal injury settlement can affect their eligibility for aid and attendance.
SSI
If a veteran is not earning earned income and suffers from an ongoing disability or permanent disability, they could be eligible for Supplemental Security Income (SSI). This is a program based on need. SSI is only available to people who have low incomes and assets. Some people might also be eligible for the VA monthly pension. The amount is determined by the duration of service, the wartime period and disability rating.
The majority of veterans disability lawyers aren't eligible for a Pension and Veterans Disability Compensation benefit at the same time. If a person is a recipient of an income pension and receives disability payments from the VA then the VA will not pay a Supplemental Security Income benefit to the person.
The VA must submit to the Social Security Administration your monthly military retirement, CRDP, or CRSC. This will nearly always increase your SSI benefit. The SSA can also calculate your SSI income using the VA waiver benefits.
If a judge requires an individual veteran to pay support as ordered by the court, the court may go directly to the VA and request that the military retirement funds seized to pay for this reason. This can be the case in divorce cases where the retired person waives their military retired benefits in exchange for VA disability benefits. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled recently in the case of Howell that this procedure was in violation of federal laws.
Medicaid
A veteran who has a service-connected disability may qualify for Medicare and Medicaid benefits. He must prove that he has been able to meet the five year look-back period. Additionally, he needs to provide proof to prove his citizenship. He cannot transfer assets without an appraisal of fair market value, but he can keep his primary residence and a vehicle. He is allowed to keep up to $1500 in cash or the face amount of a life-insurance policy.
In divorce proceedings, the judge may decide that the veteran's VA disability benefits can be considered income in the context of calculating post-divorce child support and maintenance. The reason is that numerous court decisions have confirmed the rights of family courts to utilize these payments to calculate support. These include rulings from Florida (Allen v. Allen), Mississippi (Steiner v. Steiner), and Wisconsin (In re the marriage of Wojcik).
The amount of the VA disability compensation is contingent upon the severity of the service-connected condition. It is determined by an algorithm that rates the severity of the condition. It can range from 10 percent to 100 percent and higher scores bringing the highest amount. It is also possible for veterans to receive additional compensation for attendance and aid expenses, or a special monthly payments, which are not based upon a schedule but on the degree of the disability.
