I hope they approve it quickly for you! It's bad enough being in pain, even worse if you're stressed about how to pay your bills.
Hi Cath1, I applied for short term disability thur unemployment, collected for 3 months and then LTD thur the company I work for, this was not a workplace injury. Eventually these insurances expire and then there is no money coming in, and WSIB does not expire so long as you do as they ask and your Dr. Continues filling out Comp's medical forms, I have had experience with WCB back in 1992, thanks for the well wishes and don't hesistate to ask ????
