Whole decision: Denied

The Board has determined that the reduction in VA disability compensation benefits due to concurrent receipt of military service drill pay was proper, and thus denied the appeal.

The deciding factor: The decision is based on the fact that the Veteran received both VA disability compensation and military drill pay for a period of time, which led to an overpayment. The Board found that the reduction in benefits was appropriate as per regulations prohibiting concurrent receipt of these types of payments.

What this means for you

A final Board denial may be appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims, generally within 120 days of the Board mailing date. A Supplemental Claim with new and relevant evidence is a separate option. Another Higher-Level Review of the Board decision is not available. Check your own notice: this historical decision does not set your deadline.
