    question Is back pay possible for a spouse not added as a dependent?

    I married in 2010 but didn't add my wife as a dependent. Just learned this in 2023, and they've now added her, bumping up my monthly by $100. Do I get back pay for all those years she wasn't listed? I reached out to the VA, and they're checking, but no word yet.

    question How much for 100% with a spouse, three kids, and a parent?

    I wanted to see what the pay would look like if I were 100% P&T, so I looked at the pay chart but didn't see this, so I thought I'd ask. Can someone tell me how much money you get if you have a 100% rating with a husband, three kids, and one parent?

    question Will correcting dependent information result in more back pay?

    My husband received his 50% rating today and is entitled to retroactive pay, though the payment history currently indicates N/A. Additionally, his status is listed as single without including our dependents, for which he has initiated a claim. Is he also eligible for back pay for the dependents...

    question Do I lose dependent pay if my spouse uses Chapter 35 benefits?

    When you use Chapter 35 for a dependent kid, you have to drop them from your dependent pay... But what's the deal with using it for a spouse?
