Newly separated
Transitioning from military to civilian life is a significant change. Here are the critical documents and resources you need immediately after separation.

- → Healthcare Enrollment: You have 5 years of free VA healthcare after separation.
- → Education Benefits: GI Bill benefits expire after 15 years – don’t wait to use them.

Key Points:
- VA disability is tax-free and doesn’t affect SSDI eligibility
- You can receive both VA and SSDI benefits simultaneously
- SSDI has income limits for work – VA disability does not
- 100% VA rating allows you to work without restrictions
- Document all medical conditions thoroughly for your claims
Important:Â Consult with a Veterans Service Officer (VSO) for personalized guidance on your specific situation.
