I received a one-time payment for an awarded permanent partial disability, and now DAL says I have to pay that back to them as an additional offset to the LTD plan.
Not whining too much, but it seems to me that payment for an OJI permanent disability should not be subject to recapture by the LTD plan. In my case, it was several thousand dollars.
I can't find anything in the PWA that addresses this, and all the Dalpa types are tied up in the MEC meeting. Any help would be appreciated.
Regards to all.....
You won't find that in the PWA. It will be in the plan documents.
Wild guess --> its going to depend on who paid you and how that payment was characterized.
That's way beyond this forum though. You need to call Karen Brown at DALPA.
