The statute of limitations for appealing a veteran disability decision generally allows veterans one year from the date of the decision to file an appeal with the Board of Veterans' Appeals. If a veteran misses this deadline, they typically lose the right to contest the decision unless they can show good cause for the delay. However, there is no statute of limitations for filing a claim for disability benefits itself, which can be submitted at any time. It's advisable for veterans to seek assistance from accredited representatives to navigate the appeal process effectively.
Disability Compensation: Veterans rated as 100% disabled receive monthly disability compensation payments from the VA.
100%
Because this was a failure of the original VA and many courts had been using benefits, Congress had to be careful in transitioning the repeal of the laws and precedents. The primary precedent was actually the second part of holding a veteran in contempt for failure to pay. This precedent was overturned after 10 years in 1997 PL 104-193. The veteran had argued the limitations of garnishments to the VA prior to a receipt by the veteran under 42 U.S.C. 659 also applied to the provisions of sending garnishments to a veteran after receipt under 42 U.S.C. 662. The Court ruled they were separate and the limitations under 659 only applied to the VA. Congress repealed 662 removing provisions to send garnishments to a veteran. 659 is still law and this means garnishment can still be sent to the VA. However the limitations still exist.
State laws do not govern SSD or Veteran Disability benefits. Such benefits are protected under federal exemption laws and are not subject to attachment for creditor debt only.
If your disability payments are through the VA then they are tax free and are not considered taxable income.

No they each have different rules that have to be met to qualify for each ones disability ratings.
Yes, a veteran can lose their 100 percent disability rating under certain circumstances. This may occur if the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) determines that the veteran's condition has improved, leading to a reduction in the disability rating. Additionally, if a veteran fails to attend required medical examinations or does not comply with treatment recommendations, this could also result in a rating reduction. It's essential for veterans to stay informed about their benefits and maintain communication with the VA.

It would be up to an Army Medical Review Board to determine fitness for duty based on medical condition. The Veteran's Administration is responsible for determining you medical disability category and percentage of disability, if any.
