Veterans Often Eligible for Both VA and SSDI Benefits

It’s helpful sometimes to be reminded of things. For example, most of us probably already know that disabled veterans are often eligible for BOTH Social Security disability benefits and VA service-connected disability benefits. We know this, but it’s helpful to be reminded, which brings us to today’s link:

Receiving Social Security Disability at the Same Time as VA Disability (via DC Military Magazine)

Personally, while I KNOW this, articles like this are a helpful reminder for me to make sure my CLIENTS know this. I can’t count the number of times I have spoken to someone about one type of case, only to find out they should also be pursuing a different kind of case. Social Security and VA disability, Long Term Disability and Social Security, Social Security and worker’s compensation, and so on.
