Today many of you have received a deposit from DRS that represents the special benefit payout. If you are duty related disability retired, you will note that the payment is short of the amount anticipated. This amount may vary from person to person.
As of 10:30 AM, January 13, 2023, we are advised by DRS that they are at fault for the error and will send or deposit the missing amount by January 31, 2023. Further they will advise the IRS of the error and make the necessary corrections there.
Additionally, DRS will directly contact each affected person via email, snail mail or telephone to verify this information. In all, DRS say about 2,300 individuals were impacted.
I will keep you informed of any further news.
