Working on VA Disability: Is It Doable? Let's Find Out!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- There is something many disabled veterans do not know: Even if one is working or capable of working, eligibility for VA disability compensation is still possible. You can receive VA benefits regardless of your employment status or ability to work for many VA claims. The VA does not even consider it in its evaluation of the condition. It is important for veterans to apply for benefits regardless of whether they are able to work. Instead, disabled veterans should familiarize themselves with the rating requirements for the conditions at issue.

Does “work from home” qualify for this ?
It’s a sheltered work environment but it’s a W2 gig. Please explain. Thanx.
SMC-S is also a minefield; If you're truly housebound then you better not, but if you're 100+60 then it's implied that it's in your "best interest" not to work. At least imo/experience
☝️☝️
Not true.
I respectfully disagree. There are two parts to SMC-S. The first one being housebound. The second being rated SMC-S based on the rating criteria. You can still work.

How does one obtain a “sheltered work environment” if you’re 100% TDIU without losing your VA benefits? Do you suggest I obtain an attorney (H&P) to do this? Please 🙏🏻 advise. Thank you 🙏🏻
I'm afraid to go back to work, probably punch someone just for looking at me wrong😅 those creatures called "humans"
Retired LEO and recently awarded 100% TDIU. Does this mean I should give up my part time administrative desk job in the LEO field?
Great Information!!!
Glad it was helpful!
My experience - this is all true!
If I play in sport tournaments and get paid is that considered working. I play as self therapy for PTSD. Can this be considered sheltered?
IF YOU HAVE TDIU I WOULD BE VERY CAREFUL.
@@Dave-ji1ypYup!!!
How do you know if youre TDIU or P&T?
Well, to start, you would have to have applied for TDIU. If you didn’t apply directly for it, you don’t have it. One way to tell if you’re P&T is if you start getting paperwork in the mail about education benefits.
IT SHOULD SAY IN YOUR AWARD LETTER FROM THE VBA. YOU CAN BE BOTH. AND MOST WITH TDIU ARE ALSO P@T.
So essentially a 1099 employee working remote would qualify?
Up to the poverty line set forth by the federal government
@@jayjay269 Even if the employer provides a sheltered work environment?
I feel like I think about these scenarios and you just do videos about what I think about…
👍
Now being sheltered is that from ptsd?
Sheltered just means it doesn’t exist in a normal competitive job market.
It could be for any disability that prevents you from having substantially gainful employment.

Super thank you?
Welcome 😊
I have a 70% rating but received at letter after a C&P exam that I have t&p with unemploybility at 100%. Due to my mental health issues. I have been told by a friend to try being a narrator for audible books because some will allow me to work when I can in my house. Would this be considered a sheltered work environment?
Be very careful. If you are W2 employee they will reduce you.
100% t&p is different than TDIU
@matt_spencer_photos4102 before I got t&p my rating is 70% tdiu. My last C&P exam letter came back that I still have tdiu but with t&p now.
Can u go to voc rehab with 100 p&t
Yes
What's a sheltered work environment?
For the purpose of VA disability applications, sheltered employment means that your employer knows about your service-connected disability and makes accommodations that allow you to continue working. Often, sheltered work environments involve working for a family member or a close personal friend.
@@CombatCraig You mentioned sheltered work environments often come from a family member or friend.
What if a regular W-2 employer knows about a veterans disability and provides the veteran with a sheltered environment?
Pretty 💯 CC 💯🙏🎯😇🍺🍺🍺🍺✈
🇺🇸👍💯✅☝️
CC. If you are 100% Total & Permenant and think you can work, and you do, will that affect your VA Disp? Especially if you are in your 70s?
No.. whats the worst that happens u get fired
You’re good… as long as you’re not on TDIU, I really wouldn’t stress about it. You can pretty much work as much as you want.
Good shit
💯✅🤠👍
thanks for that. I need to take a short contract for a little bit extra cash and I’m PNT. i was scared
