The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is set to issue the September 2025 VA disability compensation with a small twist: because the standard payday falls on a federal holiday, the September 2025 benefit will be deposited early on 29 August 2025. Below you’ll find the full rundown—who qualifies, when payments arrive, and the monthly rate tables based on your disability rating and dependent status.
VA Benefit Payment Schedule September 2025
Similar to Social Security’s approach, the VA provides monthly, non-taxable disability compensation to Veterans with service-connected conditions. If your income is limited and you served in the U.S. military, you may qualify for this support. Covered conditions include physical injuries, chronic illnesses, and mental health conditions that require ongoing treatment.
Your monthly amount depends on your disability rating (starting at 10%). Higher ratings generally mean higher payments. For September 2025, the VA payment will be made early on 29 August 2025. Future months will pay on the first business day of the following month and will be sent via direct deposit to your bank account.
