My date of injury was 9/7 I went back to work on light duty on 9/27 and was fired. My WC doctor didn't write me off until 10/11.
I have not been in contact with WC since my attorney told me that they would deal with all of that.
. I have not received a penny from disability or w/c.
Today I received a letter from California state disability insurance and i am not sure what the letter exactly means. does this mean WC accepted my claim?
YOUR CLAIM FOR DISABILITY INSURANCE HAS BEEN DISALLOWED FROM 10/11/11 THROUGH WHEN ELIGIBLE BECAUSE:
YOU HAVE RECEIVED OR ARE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE CASH PAYMENTS, AS TEMPORARY DISABILITY INDEMNITY UNDER WORKERS' COMPENSATION LAW OR EMPLOYER'S LIABILITY LAW, EQUAL TO OR IN EXCESS OF YOUR DISABILITY BENEFITS. SECTION 2629 OF THE CALIFORNIA UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE CODE
If this means that WC accepted my claim when should i expect to receive payment? thank you

workers comp has 14 days from when they are notified of your lost time to make the first payment.
SDI does not make the decision on whether your claim is accepted or not.
you should contact your work comp carrier.

so i should receive payment 14 days from the date that SDI notifies WC? if so should this include back pay from the date of injury?

your doctor has to verify your lost time.
the payment will include all lost time approved by the doctor except the first 3 days which will be paid after you have 21 days of lost time.
