100% Schedular

Question:

Hi Jim, I have recently been awarded a 100% schedular disability rating for PTSD. If I am able to find permanent work, will this lead to a reduction in my benefit? Also, if I start a Chapter 31 training program, will this reduce my benefit? Thank you.

 

Jim's Reply:

No, working will not affect your benefit. Neither will a C-31 training program. When we are rated as 100% P & T with a schedular rating, we're allowed to pursue and hold gainful employment. Good luck.
