We help you understand your award.
When you are awarded Social Security Disability (SSDI) benefits, there are likely two parts to your award:
- Monthly benefits paid to you each month that you continue to qualify for SSDI.
- A “one time” retroactive payment. This retroactive payment reimburses you for the benefits you earned while applying (“past-due SSDI benefits”). Five (5) months from your disability onset date, SSA recognizes your entitlement to benefits. If you are approved for SSDI benefits six (6) or more months following your disability onset date, the SSA will pay you a lump sum for this period.
We help you understand Reimbursement Agreements.
If you are already receiving Long-Term Disability (LTD) benefits, it is important to understand the impact of an approval for Social Security Disability (SSDI) benefits.
If you receive retroactive SSDI benefits for a period that overlaps with your receipt of LTD benefits, you may need to reimburse your LTD carrier all or a portion of the overlapping benefits.
The role of The Advocator Group is to help you understand your reimbursement obligations and facilitate any required reimbursement.
