I live in Louisiana and was on workers comp and was declared disabled by the social security admin. I was getting workers comp and ssd which was offset because of my workers comp, my workers comp has been settled last year and I was told that my ssd would go up after I took all paper work in to the ssa . It's been several months since I've been off workers comp and I still haven't seen an increase in my ssd, I've spoke to my caseworker and he says it's being prorated? Does anyone know how long this will take? I would greatly appreciate hearing from someone in Louisiana that has gone through something like this

When you say SSD, do you mean SSDI????
8-05, Micro laminectomy/disectomy. 10-05 lumbar fusion L5-S1. 2-07 exploritory surgery. 12-07 medical implant, Spinal Cord Stimulator. now receiving SSDI. After going back to school, I received my degree as a mechanical engineer. What can I say, it was the only way I had to beat the system.

Does that mean they are expecting me to live off my settlement money before they re adjust my ssdI check?
