After leaving AD in October for the NG, can I change over to IRR if I haven't received my bonus and I now know my VA rating? https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/after-leaving-ad-in-october-for-the-ng-can-i-change-over-to-irr-if-i-haven-t-received-my-bonus-and-i-now-know-my-va-rating <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I left active duty back in October and signed a 6 year guard contract with a $20k bonus. Its been 6 months no bonus and i recently got my letter from the VA back stating i got 100% VA disability due to messing up my back and knee on a previous deployment. My question is can I change over to IRR now since i still have received no bonus and now know my VA rating?

Getting out of your contract should be relatively simple. Contact the sane office you transitioned with and provide a copy of your Disability.

If you think your physical condition is such that you can&#39;t continue service you should look into a med board.

One way you can be considered employable, the other is you are considered unemployable. With that in mind if you are considered employable you have to waive your VA compensation in order to serve, and most units will not take anyone with above a 30% rating.
