CA disability?

Question

Has anyone applied for disability? How long did it take to get approved and start receiving payments?

Answer

I applied on 11/12 and just got my card with first payment today. You don’t get paid for the first week, but they are pretty efficient in getting everything set up.

Answer

I applied the first day of my leave, my OBGYN office submitted they’re half 4 days later. Took about 5 days to process. Went on leave on 11/11 and I Just got my card with the first payment today 11/25. You also don’t get paid for the first week so I used my PTO from work. I worked full time the last 3 years and I recently cut my hours 4 months ago so my disability is based off my highest pay so I am getting more then my checks at work which is pretty nice 💗

Answer

Takes about 3 weeks after you apply

Answer

Did you have to wait 9 days to apply? I saw something about waiting 9 days after the first day of you leave but was unsure.

Answer

My co-worker says there’s a one week lag from when you submit your application to when you get your first payment.

Answer

I applied on 11/24 (I went on early disability at 34 weeks because of severe back pain) and I was approved the 12th. The thing that took the longest was waiting for my midwife to send them the paperwork! They pay you every 14 days I think. I opted for checks vs a card because I didn’t want to have to switch my autopay lol so it takes me a couple days after to get my check
