I would think you may have to repay benefits only for any period of time when you receive BOTH disability insurance proceeds AND social security ---- it would depend on how far back social security goes with benefits. Ask a lawyer. -----Original Message----- From: Parkinson's Information Exchange Network [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Me Sent: Saturday, May 10, 2003 10:05 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Long-term disability Hi all, I was wondering if any of you have received disabiility benefits from an employer-sponsored disability insurance program. I was subscribing to my employer's disability insurance, and made a claim for benefits when I stopped working. I was approved for short-term and then later for long-term benefits: I'll receive the long-term benefits for 24 months. My question is: The insurance adjustor told me that I would have to repay the insurance company for the benefits I received if I'm approved by Social Security disability. This will amount to more than $20,000 and it's a really scary thought to know I'm liable for that much money when I'm on disability. Is this correct? Do I have to repay the disability insurance benefits?
