Did multiple searches here, but can't seem to find the answers. Did multiple searches on google and got back varying results. Anyway, here's the question that was posed to me by a fellow aviator going through medical issues: what's the max disability you can have and still be in SEL-RES? IRR?
My preliminary findings are as follows:
There is no "max" disability rating. There is a lot of bad gouge out there floating the number 30%. As far as I can tell that's not true. Additionally, the VA and the Navy don't "talk" to each other. Can't...by law, I believe.
If you're a drilling reservists and receiving disability, there is communication between the financial arms of the VA and DFAS (?) that results in your Drill pay being backed out of disability pay.
But as far as I can tell...no max disability to be in SEL-RES or IRR unless your readiness is directly affected.
There's got to be more info out there than that. Anyone got any insight?
