You may not receive TDI benefits for any period in which you work either full time or part time. This includes work done for your regular employer, any other employer, or in self employment. However, if you perform no services but continue to be paid a salary, sick, or vacation pay, you are allowed to receive TDI benefits. You cannot receive unemployment insurance and TDI for the same period. Should you become disabled while collecting unemployment insurance, you should file for TDI and notify your local unemployment office of your condition as soon as possible.
Pregnancy is treated the same way as any potentially disabling condition.
Once your doctor tells you that you cannot continue to work because your condition is incapacitating, file your TDI claim. If you have enough earnings you will be paid benefits for the time you have been medically certified as unable to work. You may not receive Temporary Disability Insurance for any period in which you receive Workers' Compensation. If you were injured on the job you must file a claim for Workers' Compensation benefits. However, if you have filed such a claim and it is being contested, you may be eligible for TDI benefits pending it settlement.
