• Can You Work with a 100% VA Disability Rating? | All You Need To Know

  Leah teams up with VA attorney Rebecca Deming of ProVet Legal to unpack a complex but crucial topic: working while rated 100% disabled by the VA. They clearly differentiate between 100% scheduler disability, which allows full-time work with no income restrictions, and TDIU (Total Disability based on Individual Unemployability), which comes with more nuanced rules around employment and income. Rebecca provides expert insight into what constitutes substantially gainful employment, sheltered work environments, and the risks of losing benefits if circumstances change. They also touch on supportive resources like Vocational Rehabilitation for veterans seeking new careers.
