DISCLAIMERS

The Retired Disability Income Estimator is only an estimator and should therefore only be used as a method to learn more about calculating total projected monthly disability income. This estimator should not be used to calculate personal projected disability income.

We have designed the scenarios so that if there is not one closely matching your situation, all of the tools are there for you to estimate your own retired pay.

Depending on legislation, the Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) in any given year is subject to change. The examples in this estimator do not include any COLA.

All examples compute basic pay for retirement purposes using the High 36 Average.  If you entered the service prior to 1980, you should use your Final Month’s Base Pay as your basic pay for retirement purposes.

Introduction

This estimator takes into account Retired Pay, Combat Related Special Compensation (CRSC), Concurrent Retirement and Disability Pay (CRDP), and Veterans Affairs (VA) Disability Pay. 

There are two versions of the estimator.  The first one provides situational examples that illustrate how retired disability pay is calculated.  The second one provides a personalized tool to input individual disability ratings, CRSC percentage, and dependent information.  Both estimators provide an estimate of possible total monthly compensation.

The situational estimator will assist in calculating the High 36 Base Pay Amount which will be needed in the personalized estimator.

What is Combat Related Special Compensation (CRSC)?

 Congress established CRSC in 2002, and it became effective June 1, 2003, so veterans may receive retired pay for combat-related injuries. In January 2008, CRSC was extended to those with less than 20 Years of Service (YOS), under Section 641, of the National Defense Authorization Act. If a retiree has a combat-related injury, is on the Temporary Disability Retired List or Permanent Disability Retired List, and has received a Veterans Affairs (VA) rating of 10% or more, they may be eligible for CRSC.

Visit the following websites for more information on CRSC: 

Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS)

Army

Navy

What is Concurrent Retirement and  Disability Pay (CRDP)?

CRDP went into effect in January of 2004 so disabled veterans could receive both their Retirement Benefits and VA Disability. If the retiree has at least 20 years of service or Temporary Early Retirement Authority, and has a VA Service Connected disability of 50% or more they may be eligible for CRDP. 

Visit the following website for more information on CRDP: 

Concurrent Retirement and Disability Pay- DFAS

Legislative Impacts on Disability Income

CRSC Entitlement maximum dollar amount can not exceed Retired Pay based on Years of Service. 

If eligible for CRSC and CRDP, only one may be received at a time.

If receiving either CRSC or CRDP, it is possible to change from one to the other.  There is an Open Seasonheld each year which lasts from December 1 to January 31 of the next year.

Retired Pay is offset by the compensation received from the VA. 

Retired Pay equals Retired pay based on Disability minus VA Pay OR Retired pay based on YOS minus VA Pay.

If VA Pay exceeds Retired Pay based on Disability, NO Retired Pay will be received. 

Legislative Impacts on Disability Income (Con’t)

For members who retired on or before 9/24/1975, or who were in the service on that date, their retired pay based on disability is non-taxable.

Retired Pay can be non-taxable if the retirement paperwork submitted to DFAS states that the disability is a direct result of a combat-related injury.

Combat Related Special Compensation (CRSC) and Veterans Affairs (VA) Pay are non-taxable.  

Concurrent Retirement and Disability Pay (CRDP) is normally taxable, unless retired pay is non-taxable.  If that is the case, CRDP is also non-taxable.

Situation

I am a Specialist (E4), with 3 years of service, and I have no dependents. I was enlisted from January 2007 to December 2009, when I was injured while deployed to a combat zone. My military disability rating is 50%, my CRSC disability rating is 30%, and my VA rating is 70%. What are my estimated combined earnings from military and VA?

Step 1: Compute Basic Pay for retirement purposes by using High 36 Average:

     High 36 is the average of the high 36 paid months of service. In this example, the paid amounts are from 2007, 2008 and 2009 military basic pay tables.  Click on the links to view the tables.

Add the 36 highest paid months and divide the total by 36:

E2 for 12 months in 2007:	$1,458.90 x 12 =	$17,506.80

E3 for 12 months in 2008:	$1,587.90 x 12 =  $19,054.80

E4 for 12 months in 2009:	$1,920.90 x 12 =  $23,050.80

                                                           		--------------							$59,612.40 / 36 = 

High 36 Average:		$1,655.90	

Return to Examples

Step 2: Compute Retired Pay

There are two ways to calculate retired pay. The first is by Disability Percentage and the second is by Years of Service. If eligible for Retired Pay, the higher of the two will be received.  In order to receive a CRSC Offset estimation (Step 3), both calculations must be utilized.

Return to Examples

Retired Pay based on Disability Percentage 

	The disability percentage is the percent that the Military has distinguished as the physical percent of disability. To find Retired Pay based on Disability Percentage:

High 36 x Disability Percentage

If the Disability % is greater than 70%, High 36 will be multiplied by 75%, otherwise it will be multiplied by the Disability %

$1,655.90 x .50 = $827

Retired Pay Based on Disability Percentage =	 $827

Return to Examples

Retired Pay based on Years of Service

	Years of Service is multiplied by 2.5%, which is yearly percent of pay earned towards retirement, and that product is multiplied by high 36.

YOS x 2.5% = service multiplier

3 x 0.025 		   = 0.075

Service Multiplier x  High 36 = Retired Pay based on YOS

0.075 x $1,655.90 = $124

Retired Pay Based on Years of Service  = $124								

Return to Examples

Step 3: Compute CRSC Offset:

CRSC Offset is computed by taking Retired Pay based on Disability less Retired Pay based on Years of Service.

Retired Pay Disability – Retired Pay YOS = CRSC Offset

$827 - $124 = $703

CRSC Offset 		        = $703

Return to Examples

Step 4: Use VA Pay tablesto come up with CRSC Entitlement:

The VA tables are based on factors such as disability percent, marital status, and number of dependents.  The amount listed on the VA table for the CRSC disability percentage is the amount to use as the CRSC Award to come up with the CRSC Entitlement, which is VA pay less the CRSC offset.  Remember, the CRSC Entitlement cannot exceed Retired Pay based on Years of Service

CRSC Award– CRSC Offset = CRSC Entitlement

$389 - $703 = $0 

CRSC Entitlement	         = $0

Go to Total Monthly 

Compensation

Return to Examples

Step 5: Total Monthly Pay: 

The Total Monthly Pay is the sum of retired disability compensations

VA Pay + *Retired Pay + CRSC 

	* Retired Pay = Retired Pay Disability – VA Pay

VA Pay:				$1,272

Retired Pay: ($827 - $1,272)    =	$       0

CRSC:				$       0

                                                                                -----------

Retired Pay based on Disability Percentage 

	The disability percentage is the percent that the Military has distinguished as the physical percent of disability. To find Retired Pay based on Disability Percentage:

High 36 x Disability Percentage

If the Disability % is greater than 70%, High 36 will be multiplied by 75%, otherwise it will be multiplied by the Disability %

$3,090.70 x .50 = $1,545

Retired Pay Based on Disability Percentage =	 $1,545

Step 1:Determining Retired Pay Due:

Take the higher of Retired Pay Based on Disability Percentage or Retired Pay Based on YOS, minus the Current Baseline Offset (CBO).

The CBO is the lesser of Retired Pay received or VA Pay, in this case it will be VA Pay

Retired Pay Based on YOS - CBO = Net Retired Pay

 $2,226 - $969 = $1,257

Net Retired Pay     = $1,257

Return to E8 Examples

Step 2:Determining the Remaining Offset:

Determine the difference between the CBO and CRDP Table Rate.

The CRDP Table Rate is the same rate as your VA Disability Percentage. Each CRDP rate is matched with a specific award amount. 

At 50% the Table Rate Amount is $100.

CBO – CRDP Table Rate Amount

$969 - $100 = $869

Remaining Offset   = $869

Step 3:Phase-in Amount:

Multiply the Remaining Offset by the Phase-in Percent

The Phase-in Percent is a set percentage for the given year, but will continue to escalate every year until 2014. In 2009 the rate is 84.88%.

Remaining offset x Phase-in %

$869 x 0.9395 = $816.43

Step 5: Total Monthly Pay:

The Total Monthly Pay is the sum of retired disability compensations

VA Pay + *Retired Pay + CRSC 

	(VA Pay is Veteran with Spouse and Child + Additional Child under 18)

	* Retired Pay = Retired Pay Disability – VA Pay

VA Pay:					$1,971

Retired Pay: ($3,180 - $1,971)    =		$1,209

CRSC:					$1,017

                                                                               	              ----------

 Total Monthly Compensation:                                           $4,197

Step 1:Determining Retired Pay Due:

Take the higher of Retired Pay Based on Disability Percentage or Retired Pay Based on YOS, minus the Current Baseline Offset (CBO).

The CBO is the lesser of Retired Pay received or VA Pay, in this case it will be VA Pay

Retired Pay Based on Disability % - CBO = Net Retired Pay

 $3,816 - $1,971 = $1,845

Net Retired Pay     = $1,845

Return to E8 Examples

Step 2:Determining the Remaining Offset:

Determine the difference between the CBO and CRDP Table Rate.

The CRDP Table Rate is the same rate as your VA Disability Percentage. Each CRDP rate is matched with a specific award amount. 

At 90% the Table Rate Amount is $500.

CBO – CRDP Table Rate Amount

$1,971 - $500 = $1,471

Remaining Offset   = $1,471

Return to E8 Examples

Step 3:Phase-in Amount:

Multiply the Remaining Offset by the Phase-in Percent

The Phase-in Percent is a set percentage for the given year, but will continue to escalate every year until 2014. In 2009 the rate is 84.88%.

Remaining offset x Phase-in %

$1,471 x 0.9395 = $1,382

Return to E8 Examples

Step 4:CRDP Entitlement :

In order to calculate CRDP Entitlement add the CRDP Table Rate amount to the Phase-in Amount.

CRDP Table Rate Amount + Phase-in Amount

$500 + $1,382 = $1,882

Total CRDP Entitlement: 	$1,882

Return to E8 Examples

Step 5: Maximum CRDP Award Amount:

The maximum CRDP Award is calculated by subtracting Net Retired Pay by Retired Pay Based on YOS.  The CRDP received cannot exceed this amount.

Retired Pay Based on YOS – Net Retired Pay

$2,226 - $1,845 = $381

Maximum CRDP Award: $381

***The CRDP Entitlement is greater than this, so the retiree will only receive $381
