In this article, I break down the 2020 VA disability pay chart in detail.
On October 10, 2019, the BLS reported September 2019 inflation data, allowing for the formal announcement of the Social Security Administration’s 2020 COLA, which is set to increase by 1.6%.
Thus, Veterans will get a 1.6% increase in their 2020 VA pay rates from their 2019 VA pay rate.
The Department of Veterans Affairs adjusts veteran’s monthly compensation amounts based on the yearly change in the cost of living as determined by the Social Security Administration.
It only makes since that your monthly VA benefit amount will increase with the rate of inflation.
In 2019, Veteran’s get a nice 2.8% increase based on a Cost-of-Living Adjustment (COLA) increase.

2020 VA Disability Pay Rates
In 2020, VA disability pay rates rise by 1.6%, which means veterans didn’t get a very big increase like they did in 2019.
The new 2020 VA disability rates will be effective as of December 1, 2019.

The 2020 VA disability pay raise for disabled veterans means veterans will begin seeing the new VA pay rates in their January 2020 disability compensation payment.
You may also qualify for a variety of Special Monthly Compensation (SMC) categories, which for simplicity sake, were not included here.
Veterans with service-connected disabilities rated at 10% or higher can use the following 2020 VA disability pay rate chart, which includes the new 1.6% increase in the COLA rate from 2019, to determine how much tax-free compensation you’ll get each month.
Veterans with a rating of 10-20% do not receive any extra compensation for dependents, and thus, are paid at the single rate, which is why those rates weren’t included on the chart.
A 10% VA disability rating for 2020 is: $142.29/month
A 20% VA disability rating for 2020 is: $281.27/month
