I did some investigation and, according to MTStars, in 2017 VMTS was investigated and fined.

I have info on this. Please send me an email and I will fill you in. I am not comfortable putting it out here either. I have a contact at the DOL and we all should be getting money. The investigation is still ongoing and should be wrapped up soon. After it is wrapped up, DOL will tell VMTS how much they have to pay each individual and then they will have 30 or 60 days to pay us all. I have been through this before, some people got $1500 and some $15,000.

Not paying right - no job

I've been emailed by several employees and they are not paying people any of the perks. None. My best friend is owed thousands of dollars by her previous employer for not being paid properly for VA work. She called 1-866-4-USWAGE (1-866-487-9243) and reported them. Don't let these companies take advantage of you.

Also, for your information, I know for a fact since I am a VA Veteran the following information, which can be found under

Any time you work on an account that has a federal government contract you have to be considered a statutory employee (meaning the employer takes out social security and Medicare), NOT classified merely as an independent contractor but an independent contractor/statutory employee, and you have to be paid the hourly rate AND have an additional hourly rate that goes into a benefits fund for health insurance, sick leave and vacation purposes. For anyone who currently works on a VA federal government contract, you must be paid the hourly wage determination rate.

On the date a service employee commences work on a SCA covered contract, the contractor or subcontractor is required by law to deliver to the employee or post a notice of the required compensation in a prominent place either at the work site or on a company 's online website...the same applies any time an employer adds an additional VA account to that employee.

Furthermore, NOT receiving any fringe benefits at all, such as health insurance, sick leave, paid vacation, not being paid by the hour, instead being paid by the line, is in direct contradiction to the McNamara-O’Hara Service Contract Act. Under the McNamara-O'Hara Service Contract Act (SCA) of 1965, all employees working on a contract in excess of $2500 must be paid an hourly rate, should also receive fringe benefits i.e. paid vacation, paid holidays, paid sick leave.
