Veterans Compensation Benefits Rates 2017
VA Disability Compensation military retirees and veterans will receive a 0.3% COLA increase for 2017. The average VA compenstation recipient will receive an average of $2.89 monthly increase. This may buy you a loaf of bread. Retirees may get up to a $13.00 on their monthly check. I guess this increase is better than nothing, but the Cost of Living Adjustment may go up to 3% this year, you can see there's no decimal point in front of that 3.
