Your basic benefit amount is determined by your level of disability. The evidence you submit with your claim, as well as the military records they obtain, are used to determine the severity of your disability. The VA assigns disability ratings ranging from 0% to 100% in 10% increments (for example, 10%, 20%, 30%, and so on).
In some cases, you might receive extra payments if:
- You have a severe disability or have lost a limb.
- You have dependents— a spouse, children, or parents.
- You have a spouse who is severely disabled.

The VA Ratings’ Approach to Multiple Disabilities
The VA determines a combined disability rating for you if you have multiple disabilities using the combined ratings. Please take note that disability ratings are not cumulative, therefore if you are evaluated as having one disability at 60% and another at 20%, the combined rating will not be at 80%. This is so that the 20% disability will be applied to you even though you are already 60% disabled. Subsequent disability ratings are given to Veterans who are already disabled. The procedures VA follows to combine ratings for multiple disabilities are outlined here, along with examples that use the Combined Ratings Table to show how combined ratings are determined. The disabilities are initially arranged using the Combined Ratings Table in the exact order of their severity, starting with the most severe disability. Depending on what is acceptable, the degree of one impairment will be read in the left column and the degree of the other in the top row.
The figures that occur at the intersection of a column and a row signify the sum of the two.
- It is rounded to the nearest 10% for this total value.
- The degree of the third disability is coupled with the precise combined value (not yet rounded).
- The process is repeated for any additional disability, and the result is rounded to the nearest 10%.
