Yes you can collect both, but each agency has to accept you independently of each other. But there's a catch (as always). Any benefit you receive from SSA is subject to the WEP, windfall elimination provision. In other words, you are prevented by the federal government from receiving your maximum benefit from SSA. This applies to retirement benefits too - same idea. With SSA there is a mandatory 5 month waiting period before the first benefit will be issued if you are approved.
A ray of hope OPERS and others are trying to get the WEP repealed; however watch the OPERS website as the Board is considering some changes to benefits. (read it the other day, but of course I can't remember. I think it was concerning healthcare.) Any of these changes will have to be legislated in Columbus and I remember thinking that if I am going to get disability I need to get on it.
No, to collect social security disability you must not be able to work any job in the national economy.
Collecting Social Security would not interfere with your compensation disability
can you collect social security disability due to 2 knee repalcements
Don't think so, but go to the social security website for help. You need 40 quarters to collect social security and be 65.
Illinois does not have state short term disability. Social Security disability is a federal program.You can get short term disability in Illinois by through your employer, or by working with an agent.
While on social security disability if sentenced to a mental facility can you still collect
Some Social Security Disability beneficiaries have to pay federal income taxes on their Social Security Disability benefits, while others do not.
You should be able to. If you are working past retirement age and paying in to state disability you should be able to collect up to 12 months. State disability is different then federal social security. If you are paying in and its within the 12 months you should be eligible to collect on what you paid for, it is insurance.
Some people have to sue for disability. Social Security has disability and some jobs have it. If you have not worked long enough you might need to file for medicaid.
NO
Preparation for social security disability appeal hearing?
Yes you can. However if your collecting disability benefits from a LTD then they will most likely kick you off once you start receiving your SSDI benefits. However, if you trying to get on SSI, which is income based, you wont be able to collect both.
