I did my board the end of Nov, got my letters just before Christmas and got money increase by end Feb. I would say you should get it any time now. Don’t wait for the letters, they take forever. Keep checking your payment amounts in VAC. I did that daily until I received. VACs comms are...

Out of curiosity, is there a severance pay calculator available anywhere? I am trying to figure out how much to expect…. Cheers

No. There was a subset of people who already received compensation. This particular action argued that there were MORE calculation errors….end of para 2, and para 3.

It’s derived from the New Veteran’s Charter which is an amendment to the Pension Act.

That doesn’t really help. The governemnt terms everything ‘pension for life’ as a suite of benefits including pain and suffering. This is just another sh1tshow rollout from an incompetent government.

Thanks all…not really sure what I want to do. I am in my mid 50’s and have been workin for 40 years, 24 in military. I haven’t worked full time in nearly 2 years, and I am really not interested in learning coding lol.

They call it VRP…I have 7 weeks left, so nothing will be done in service.

I just got pre approved for CAF LTD as I go out he door and am now being contacted about VRP. I am not sure what I want to do…can I politely tell them to go away? I already have a degree in my field and extensive experience. Probably the only thing I could do is finish my master’s degree, but...

Actually, I found this is the QR &O: “(4) If an initial authority, other than the Chief of the Defence Staff, does not determine a grievance within the time limit set out in paragraph (2), the grievor may submit to the initial authority, for forwarding to the final authority, a request to...

Anyone know what happens if the IA doesn’t get back to you with disclosure at the 4 month mark? What recourse do I have?

My bad, yes, sorry 90 days. I am up on my 4 month soon and had that on my mind. And not necessarily. I submitted my grievance to no one in particular. It went through the CO for admin purposes, but I had no idea where it would wind up. The grievance admins look at it and make a...

A grievance can be submitted for any ‘decision, act or omission’, but must be done while in uniform within 4 months of you being aware of the above…..and it doesn’t need to be a specific person. You can grieve a policy in a sense in that you’ll grieve how the policy was enacted or interpreted...

It went up ~6.5% in 2022 and ~4.5% in 2023. That’s tax free too. FYI the monthly payout is around 3% of the total. In 2021 the lump sum on 100% was $385,000. Today it’s $440,000. Not only are you sacrificing thousands tax free, but it’s money sheltered from divorce or bankruptcy. If you...

If interest rates are over 3%, you’re better off leaving the money. Not sure how much you got, but that 27 year SISIP nonsense is just that….nonsense.

I am still waiting goin*on a month since I ‘won’. Funny how if you owe them money, better cough it up right away or we charge interest…but they can take their sweet time paying you.
