It should be 5.8. Which is what Social Security is. They are usually the same unless they do something different this year. The military retirement cost of living increas is also 5.8 for 2009. So I am 98% sure VA will also be 5.8% Hope this helps you! Last Year VA did not update their pay/comp. charts till like Jan 1st.
