Combat Related Special Compensation (CRSC). What Is This? Are You Getting All Of Your Benefits Vets?

Описание: Combat Related Special Compensation (CRSC) provides a critical financial benefit to retired military veterans with combat-related disabilities by offering additional tax-free payments.

Combat-Related Special Compensation (CRSC) provides tax-free payments to retired military veterans with combat-related disabilities, helping to offset reductions in military retirement pay caused by receiving VA disability benefits.
Eligibility for CRSC requires applying through your specific branch of the uniformed services, which will then coordinate with the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) to process your claim and determine appropriate payments.
CRSC eligibility criteria include having a military retirement status, one or more combat-related disabilities, and experiencing a reduction in retirement pay due to VA disability compensation. Additional evidence and documentation are necessary to support your claim.
The CRSC application process involves submitting the required forms and documentation to your service branch, being aware of the six-year statute of limitations for back pay, and understanding the differences between CRSC and Concurrent Retirement and Disability Pay (CRDP).

Each branch of the military has specific mailing addresses, emails, and online or email application portals for CRSC applications:
