Hi All,

Wanted to update since you all have been so helpful with information lately. I received my awards letter from SSD, I will get my back pay in a few days, however there are some gliches that will need to be adjusted on SSD part. They still have me collecting 100% TTD from WC , which is incorrect of course! I am at permanent partial 75%. I called the 1-800 # right away and spoke with a very helpful friendly woman, which is rare. Back in the day of my original WC attorney, I was less than satisfied with his work, so I applied to the NYS WC Board to have access to my own WC file online, which has proven to be a godsend! I was able to give the woman on the phone at SSD my correct income from comp., with the exact date of pay change..as we spoke she was entering all information in her computer and told me to send in a copy of the paper I had showing this information (I said I would personally bring it in). They then verify it with the WC IC and make the necessary adjustments. I am thinking, could this really be this easy? I hope so.

The difference is enough to give me a nice extra chunk of back pay! I hope that is how it will all work out
