Yes, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) can potentially attach Social Security (SS) payments, including non-disability checks, to recover debts owed to the VA. However, this typically occurs under certain circumstances, such as when a veteran has an outstanding debt related to VA benefits or services. The VA must follow specific legal procedures, and veterans may have options to appeal or negotiate the debt before any attachment occurs.

Can treasury offset program attach to va disability comp?

Yes, the Treasury Offset Program (TOP) can potentially attach to VA disability compensation if the veteran owes certain federal debts, such as delinquent taxes or federally guaranteed student loans. When this occurs, the Department of the Treasury may withhold a portion of the disability benefits to satisfy the debt. However, certain protections exist for veterans, and not all debts will result in offsets against VA compensation. It's advisable for veterans facing potential offsets to seek guidance from a legal expert or veterans' service organization.

No. VA disability isn't taxable and you won't get a 1099 for this income. If you are also receiving regular military pension, your 1099-R will only include the taxable portion and will not include your VA disability portion.
