Question
Do I have to be an active employee to apply for LTD?
Answer
Lori: Generally speaking, if out on claim and a new/different disability arises you can add that to your existing claim for consideration by the carrier. I suggest you contact our office and speak with one of the attorneys to discuss in more detail your circumstances and your options.
