When will payments for a disability begin?

Generally, most long-term disability policies do not begin paying benefits immediately. The time you must wait for benefits to begin is known as the elimination period (EP). The most common waiting period lengths are 30 days, 90 days, or six months after a disability occurs. A longer elimination period usually means a lower premium.

How long will my disability payments last?

A disability insurance policy will specify the maximum length of time benefits can last. Typical options are two years, five years, 10 years, or until retirement. The longer the maximum benefit period, the higher the cost of the policy will be, but the better you’ll be covered in the event of the unexpected.
  • Get coverage for however long is agreed on in your policy
  • 2 years, 6 years, 10 years, or until retirement coverage length options
  • Monthly benefits help supplement your income while you're out of work

How much of my income will be replaced?

A disability insurance policy will generally not replace all of your income as your insurance company will want to maintain a financial incentive for you to return to work. Policies typically range from 40 percent to 65 percent of your pre-disability earnings at the time of purchase. If you earn commissions and bonuses, these are normally not included.
  • 40% to 65% of your income is replaced
  • Allowing for the ability to return to work
  • Commissions and bonuses outside of the income at the time of purchase are not included in most cases

What disabilities are covered?

Every policy will have a “definition of disability” that explains what must happen in order for you to qualify for benefits. The key is whether a disability stops you from working, and what type of work it stops you from doing. The medical conditions of the disability will determine disability eligibility and benefits.

For example, a policy with an “own occupation” definition will pay benefits if your disability stops you from doing the job you had at the time of disability. However, a policy with an “any occupation” definition will pay benefits if your disability prevents you from doing any work for which your education and experience are appropriate.
