💡 Why Some VA Payments Arrive Early
If the first of the month lands on a weekend or federal holiday, the VA issues your payment on the last business day before.
That’s why you may receive two payments in August—one for August, and one early for September.
🔍 What to Watch For in Your Bank Account
VA payments will usually appear as:
“VACP TREAS 310”
This is short for Veterans Affairs Compensation & Pension via U.S. Treasury.
