BTW, thank you for taking the time to help me understand.
I meet the #4 Condition for Exclusion.
- I am entitled to receive disability compensation from the VA (I receive a VA disability)
- My amount would be all of my pension (because my retirement pay is less than the amount I receive from the VA)
And I meet this portion of what you put in italics “However, if the pension qualifies for the exclusion for a service-connected disability (discussed earlier), don't include in income the part of your pension that you would have received if the pension had been based on a percentage of disability. You must include the rest of your pension in your income.”
