I would agree, as I am trying to sort out my Departmental review for hearing, I asked the member on the phone, she said ALL will have the option for Lump Sums, I said that's funny, MY CM told me two weeks ago those at 100% wont be eligible and would only receive a monthly addition. (To be fair...

HA, I was an LCIS, want to see Grey, go check out the spec pay debacle, I agree with the limit cash flow. I do think they could of done great with this, however, they seemed to have limited the funds. Not to be a greedy prick, but My estimates, along with my CM, I will be getting the $592...

No Problem, part of my issues are I cant have Grey areas, has to be black or white, yes or no. So I will scour things for the full picture.

I have been scouring the page more and more today after the discussion with my CM. I have found a few spots that have indicated those at 100%,  Will not be able to, because they are at the max lump sum already. those less, yes they can, up to $365000, or whatever the 2019 Index is set to on...
