If you receive VA disability payments, you probably were happy to know that for 2019, you received a 2.8 percent raise in your benefits, the largest in 7 years. Disability payment benefits for a particular month are paid the first business day of the following month. When the first business day of the month falls on a non-business day or a holiday, VA benefits will be paid on the last business day of the month. For a complete list of pay dates, see this Paycheck Chronicles post.
