If you receive back pay for va disability after bankruptcy is discharged do you have to report it to the court?
To my understanding you should not have to, but you may want to go onto the VA website and check the state by state laws that apply to disabled vets. This also changes if you are more than 30%. The website link for this via my award letter is http://www.VA.gov/statedva.htm
