Frequently Asked Question

Is it possible to get kicked off wage loss?

# Back to all FAQs

Yes, it is possible. While wage loss benefits can be a great help during difficult times, federal employees should not look at it as a long-term benefit. In almost all cases should expect for this benefit to expire.

In many situations it is a good idea to apply for an additional benefit such as Federal Disability Retirement, if you are not going to be able to return to work.
