What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CO
I am o SSDI and also employer paid disability. Every year the Employer paid insurance company has me take forms to my doctor to fill out to prove the need to remain on disability benefits. This year they are asking me to sign a form to allow them to contact SS for a Fact Query, in which is information that SS has in regards to my benefits. I have been on SSDI for over 20 years and the same for Employer paid disability benefits and never once had they asked me to provide them with a release to look into SSDI. AM I legally obligated to sign this form to allow them into my SS information? Why after all these years do they want this? The Insurance carrier gets the information from my doctor every year. What do they need with SS?
Frustrated
