If the VA increases my disability percent (from 50% to 60%) and adjusts my effective date (from 2017 to 2012), will they also pay backpay?

Yes they will. They will do an audit with DFAS to come up with the appropriate amount of back pay given your retired status. I would calmly suggest to those who find grammar appalling that we do not know the specifics of this service member's disability or how it effects his ability to communicate. What we do know is that he is in need of assistance and we, as leaders, are duty bound to provide said assistance to the best of our ability. Semper Fi.

MSG Stan Hutchison It is clear you didn't see his original posted question which is now clear and understandable. LTC Kevin B. saw the question right after I did and agreed. Now after he has rewritten the question it is nothing like it originally was. I can understand it now. So he gets proper advice. I guess I must have given good advice to begin with.

First of all you need to learn how to correctly write a sentence. Second you are very vague in this question which needs some clarification. I am guessing you need to contact your unit admin personal to get this resolved. As it looks like a pay issue, make sure you got copies of all your LES and such.

If this Cpl. received VA adjudication it is most likely he is no longer in the active service and therefore has no unit from which to receive guidance.
