A note about this article
The disability compensation rates in this post are for 2023.
Here are the VA disability pay rates for 2025.
New monthly payment amounts for disability compensation benefits are announced almost every year. Outside influences like inflation rates factor into these new amounts. The change affects the more than 5 million veterans (and growing) who receive disability checks from the VA.
VA ratings are based on how disabling a veteran’s service-connected condition or combined conditions are.
Below you will find a table of the 2023 VA disability rates for a single veteran with no dependents or additional benefits.
VA Rating | 2023 Monthly Compensation (Veteran with no dependents) |
---|---|
10% | $165.92 |
20% | $327.99 |
30% | $508.05 |
40% | $731.86 |
50% | $1,041.82 |
60% | $1,319.65 |
70% | $1,663.06 |
80% | $1,933.15 |
90% | $2,172.39 |
100% (or TDIU) | $3,621.95 |
The monthly amount increases for spouses and dependent children and parents for veterans with conditions rated at 30% or more. Veterans with dependents can find their monthly compensation payment rates on the VA’s website.
You may also receive additional special monthly compensation (SMC) or aid and attendance benefits in certain cases.
