Most members involuntarily separated from active duty are eligible for separation pay. The figures shown below are the payments to people who have exactly the number of years of service listed; actual payments are based on both full and partial years of service. A dash in the chart indicates that none of the services reported any members with that combination of years and paygrade.

REMINDER: Federal law (10 U.S. Code § 1174) requires the VA to withhold compensation pay for veterans separation pay, severance pay, and readjustment pay, less any federal taxes already paid.

My separation pay was giving after discharge but after a year & half later in serving as a Reservice; the VA told me that i was able to receive VA benefits because i received Sep. Pay or something of that. Not sure what happened but i was able to return to Active Status and had to STOP VA compensation because of Tittle-10 duty. But the question here is now that I am able to retire with 20+AD service...how does all that in the past affect my pension/retirement????
