Good day! I am a retired service member with an initial VA Disability rating of 70% which entitles me to receive Concurrent Receipt of Retired and Disability Pay (CRDP). On 09 Feb 2024 I received a retroactive service-connected disability determination which changed my rating to 90%, however I am being paid at the 100% rate due to the VA's determination of individual unemployability. This new rating was made retroactive to September 2022. The VA letter contains a table which shows the amount withheld for each month of 2023. I am at the income section in Turbotax and my question concerns the "less common income" section. Under IRS Publication 525 pages 61-62, it says that I can deduct the amount withheld from the chart from my 2023 income. Could someone help me out with the interpretation of this quagmire?
Thanks in advance!
Mike
