In California, you can collect short-term disability benefits for up to 52 weeks (about one year) if you meet the eligibility requirements. Benefits typically begin after a seven-day waiting period and provide a portion of your wages, usually around 60-70%. The exact duration may depend on your specific medical condition and its impact on your ability to work. Always check with the California Employment Development Department for the most accurate and personalized information.

If you were diagnosed with MS on Nov 9 2007 and you have been on disability since and your employer has terminated you can you still collect disability?

If you had active coverage under your group short-term disability or long-term disability plan on November 9, 2007, then you may be eligible for benefits. You will have to find out what insurance company handled your disability benefits during that period of time, and then follow-up with them. Whether you are actually eligible for benefits will depend on the contract your employer had/has with this insurance company. Some contracts have late filing penalties, some have clauses regarding termination of employment, etc. Long story short - call that insurance company. You may be eligible for disability benefits.
