I will do just that! Thanks for the advice. It's funny how I just assume anything on paper is correct. I see my release docs, it has a number, and that number perfectly matches what my pay out was. But if my release doc erroneously omitted my PLD than we certainly have an issue. Again, thanks.

Not a pay clerk and was never on the ball with my pay outside of how much was in my account. I believe that PLD was paid at the beginning of our pay. When we released, we already had RECEIVED our PLD for that month and nothing was owing. We did NOT recieve PLD on the day of our release. Unlike...

Yea good point. We sure had a habit of spending our raises once we knew they were coming. I'm curious how you were recieveing PLD when I wasn't. There would be no mechanism that would allot that allowance to you over any other member. I think you may be in the same boat as the rest of us. We all...

I will explain the lawsuit as best as possible in laymen terms as I see quite a bit of misinformation out there. You WILL receive money if the following applies. 1. Were you released between 1999 and 2021? If so....move to next step. 2. Did you receive ANY SISIP LTD payments between 2012 and...

So to sum up. The amount I got is EXACTLY how much I thought I'd get IF they were only going by what was on our release documents on day of release. Everyone reading this, do yourself a fabour and check your documents or call the BOR and ask them how to get a copy of your release pay docs. I...

Anyone on sisip wasn't receiving sea pay on release as we are all medical. Impossible to be released under LTD program and just come off the ship that day.

It's definitely NOT paying PLD. If it did, I'd have received another $100k at the very least

Typo correction: "IRB will now* reduce my pay"

FYI: I was an MSE guy. My allowances were, clothing, "sea pay", specialist pay and PLD on top of my salary. I released on 2007 and received $42,000 after lawyer, and taxes were taken. That said...I don't know how much taxes were taken but know damn well that it wasn't enough. I'll owe more taxes...

No. I'm well versed on our pay and benefits. This was 100% the lawsuit payout. It was a LOT.

So very true. This could have been avoided by listing off which allowances were included. Even in the lawsuit summary it mentions Simon Logan's receipt of PLD amongst many others. Since day 1, the thrust of most my talks with veterans was..."PLD was an allowance right!?" And it sure was. But (no...

Yes, I received a rather high PLD like everyone who lived here. Buuuuut.....PLD is not listed on my release papers like my specialist allowance was. The lawsuit states we are entitled to any allowances we received ON release day. PLD was not paid on our last day.

Yes PLD was an "allowance" but it wasn't paid on the day of release. On your release papers it will tell you exactly what allowance you were being paid on THAT day.

I just got paid. Released Nov 2007. It appears that I got my spec pay only. No paperwork has been sent yet, just a direct deposit into my account.

This didn't age well.
