Apply for Temporary Disability in Florida
A temporary disability, that which can render you unable to move or work, can be a problem for those who are employed and in need of income. Some injuries leave people unable to perform duties or tasks needed in their jobs. It would be difficult for an injured person to finance his or her medical expenses especially if he or she will be unable to work in the whole duration of the injury or disability.
Fortunately, those who are facing this problem in Florida can apply for Temporary Disability benefits. Citizens of Florida who can no longer perform any type of work because of an injury may be eligible to receive temporary benefits while the injury lasts. Benefits may last up to two years and will cover two-thirds of your wages. However, Florida’s Division of Disability Determinations must first deem the eligibility of a claimant before he or she receives benefits provided by the Social Security Administration.
Temporary disability is a benefit payable if a person gets an injury or illness that makes him unable to work for more than three (3) calendar days. Unlike the Workers Compensation Benefits, Temporary Disability Benefits are given to a worker who is disabled by an injury that is not work related. The disabled worker is paid a weekly income after a waiting period of about a week.
