Thanks for posting. Good to see someone keeping up with all the changes for us veterans.
2.5% isn’t bad, but it could be better to make up for the Biden fiasco years...............
Hopefully SS will rise at the same rate or more. It ain’t much, but it helps.
Unless it's a special event, the rate rises for VA disability and SS are the same.
