What is the name of your state? CT
Hello; I am out of work on extended medical leave, I am collecting Group Long Term Disability Benefits through my employer. My employer is paying my health insurance benefit and my LTD is waiving the payments on my accident and life insurance. I have been offered an opportunity to do some free lance writing for a small newspaper working strictly from home and only when I feel up to it. I have a rare and not curable kind of cancer and likely will not be able to return to my former job. My question is; if I were to do some free lance writing and be paid by the article, working from home, would I jeapordize my LTD and other benefits? I think it would be good for me mentally to write, however I can't see jeapordizing everything if it would be considered a "job". I had to fight hard to get my benefits approved and I don't want to do anything to upset the apple cart particularly since my health is up and down and I need everything I have that is already approved in order to survive, my medications are very, very expensive as are my medical costs. Any advice? What is the name of your state?
