Resolved Question: Is there such thing as a type of social worker who can help a person navigate through solving a crisis?
(Mon, 19 Jul 2010 20:29:30 GMT)
Our neighbor, a single parent with 2 kids, was self employed but is now permanently disabled so can no longer work at all. She just lost her house to foreclosure (predatory lender scam), her car to repossession, her family medical insurance coverage and her utilities are going to be cut off soon. They have to be moved out in the next few weeks and can't afford to move anywhere. She's ineligible for unemployment benefits (California) because she was self-employed, and can't afford to go to t

Resolved Question: Self Employed disability coverage in CA?

My doctor sent in my claim stuff around Dec 18. I filled in the forms for elective coverage as I am self employed. Yesterday I just my "notice of computation" in the mail which shows my maximum benefit is $0.

Resolved Question: What do self employed people do when they get injured on the job?
(Sun, 03 Jan 2010 04:51:02 GMT)
My father is a general contractor and has his own small business. He was recently at a job, slipped on some ice in the driveway, and broke his ankle. He's now out of work for 6 to 8 weeks. I know that when one of his crew members got injured, they filed a claim with workman's comp.
Our health insurance (Cobra) is covering the cost of surgery and everything else medical, but I want to know if he's going to be able to get unemployment or disability or anything while he's unable to work.

Resolved Question: How much do you value health insurance?

The healthcare conundrum: Private matter? Or public? I am fortunate to have healthcare options provided by my employer. My premium of about $160/mo is higher than if I was to purchase a basic private health insurance from Anthem or Blueshield, etc, but I get comprehensive coverage and need only to worry over the average of $25 copays per doctor's visit. Unfortunately, our group health insurance does not make any empathetic cuts to spousal premiums. If I was to have our insurance cover him, we

Voting Question: Semi Self-employed eligibility for CA-SDI?

Last year I was a temporary employee for a company for 8 months from April through December. The company paid into the CA-SDI fund as if I were a regular employee. This year I've been a consultant from January through the end of July. On August 1st, I had a serious bicycle accident and my primary doctor put me on disability for three months. Am I eligible for CA-SDI insurance because I worked for an employer last year? Looking at the web site, it seemed like I was eligible, but someone at the

This is the real deal. My husband is a general contractor and has been out of work for almost a year. We can no longer afford our overhead expenses like business liability insurance and advertising and now have to let the business go under and let his license go inactive. Although he is a very talented and well-referenced carpenter--there is simply no work in our geographic area--we live in the highest impacted construction job-loss area in the country.

I am mother to 2 children, ages 5 and 7. I work full time for the same company for 23+ years, but have been on disability for a few months. I still provide the health insurance for myself and the children. I don't smoke, drink alcohol or do drugs.

Resolved Question: What are the in and outs of disability?
(Mon, 06 Apr 2009 20:45:04 GMT)
My dad has a foot infection down to the bone. He may lose it. I'm wondering about his ability to collect disability. He will be 60 in October, has been self-employed his whole life. He's a logger and will not be able to continue to work as a logger. What is the legal procedure for him to collect disability?
On top of this, he is diabetic, has high blood pressure, cataracts, and kidney problems. He needs to retire...but can he? How does disability work? What about social security?

A close relative of mine went on short-term disability leave back in September right before having early-stage breast cancer surgery and has been receiving short-term disability payments from her employer's insurance company ever since. Following surgery and subsequent radiation (she didn't need chemo), more and more "stuff" started appearing at her house that she'd been buying with the insurance money--new clothes, a new sofa, she's talking about getting a treadmill, etc.--and spending hours

Resolved Question: Why do people who oppose healthcare reform think only LAZY people want reform?
(Thu, 28 Aug 2008 03:57:02 GMT)
People saying that only lazy people want heathcare reform amazes me. What makes you think that anyway? I work and have been working for 20 years AND I have had a disability for 22 years. I paid back every last cent of my student loans myself AND I make a decent salary. I am very fortunate to have healthcare coverage. Not everyone is so fortunate.
But I have a pre-exisiting condition. If I lose my job and have to take a job that doesn't provide coverage, I will be denied private coverage. Priv

Resolved Question: How much money do I need to cover myself if I ever become disabled?

Disability insurance is very expensive if your a self-employed business owner. For my craft, lawn service, disability insurance will cover me until I'm 62 years old if I am willing to pay almost $2,000 a month for this policy.
If I want to set up my own account, how much money will I have to have in my account today if I want to live off the interest and beat inflation until I'm at least 62 years old or older if I was to ever become disable? I am 37 years old and my gross income is $70,000

In my situation:
I'm 16 and covered under my mother's insurance through the state because she has a disability- I'm moving in with my self-employed father who's covered by his wife's insurance (which is through her job).

Resolved Question: If an incurable person on SSDI, becomes self-employed, what are the upper limits after the TWP ?
(Sat, 07 Apr 2007 21:44:10 GMT)
A Missouri Voca Rehab worker tells me that if a person on SS Disability becomes self-employed, the individual would no longer be "disabled" if he or she worked more than 40 Hours Per Month. While I believe I can be productive 80 to 100 hours per month, I see no way I could ever afford insurance after Medicare. There must be more to know than this. Advise from specialists is what I need... like a disability lawyer or an SS expert... from Allsup in Belleville, IL for example.
