| If you are or have been looking into applying for state disability. Some states allow state disability but in most cases state disability is only paid for a a limited period of time. This is why it is important to also apply for social security disability and or ssi disability (for example California disability only pays for one year of disability). Another example maybe Group Long Term Disability which may or may not be provided by your employer. Under such a policy you are required by the disability insurance carrier to also apply for social security disability as well. Which in turn means if you are successful with your disability claim you will also get Medicare and yearly cost of living increases with social security disability. |
