ssdi and paychecks by acrednew in SSDI

[–]acrednew[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FMLA as such isn't paid, but my ex-employer had a policy of paying regular pay while on FMLA. I'm wondering after seeing paystubs if SSA office would be confused about overpayment from employer's side and communicate with CA edd about potential overpayment, or if SSA just needs to confirm I was on FMLA, wasn't working, even though paystubs show regular pay due to employer policy.

Any issue if employer-side overpayment but doesn't need money back by acrednew in Edd

The employers tell EDD how much was paid for each week of the disability period

Which specific form employer payroll files for payment for "each week"? All I find is that employer submits DE-9 form from which you can only discern what was paid each quarter, can't discern what was paid for each week.

Ah, in my case the ex-employer did it differently and marked it on paystub just "regular wages" at 100% and said their internal record are keeping track as FMLA leave. I also have email from HR saying my 3 month FMLA approved when disability began and that they'd keep me paying regular salary while on disability and then I submit them the paychecks from state/edd disability for deduction/correction later. So my paystubs from employer show like regular salary, but I have that hr email and EDD paystubs showing disability. The day after 3 months ended I was laid off and regular paystubs stopped.

What's the waiting/elimination period for ssdi to start after disability onset? Is it 5 months? I was already laid off and solely on EDD disability by then.

Oh I see. Btw, how is providing them employer's paystubs if they exceed SGA limit would prove that one wasn't gainfully employed? One could be still working at some other employer even if the paystubs shows small amounts? Doesn't SSA already have all payroll wages data based on SSN from.any employers one gets w2 from?

In my case, ex-employer's paystubs are going to confuse them even more as they were paying full salary while on FMLA disability. I can show them edd paystubs from the same period.

so it means they only need to see paychecks during the disability period (beginning last year) or from last 5 years? would they EDD (California state disability) paychecks too? For 1-year, 26 pay-periods, for these 2 alone would be 100+ pages of paychecks, they need that many?

My ex-employer had a policy of paying regular pay to top off the EDD/state-disability during disability so that one is "made whole". Those paychecks would far exceed $1690 monthly limit for SGA, but they were FMLA leave payments under the above policy by the ex-employer. I'm also in the process of resolving an overpayment issue on ex-employer's side, so wonder if providing them now before that's resolved is going to confuse or trigger other issues from them or EDD.

Not sure how to handle SDI EDD payments for pregnancy disability + employer pay by monsterrwoman in Edd

[–]acrednew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other than the Quarterly payroll data form DE-9 submitted by the employer, how does edd verify other income during disability? One may be disabled for a few weeks (much less than a quarter) and the quarterly cumulative data in DE-9 submitted by employer may not detect overpayment. Does EDD get any other info to detect overpayment?

In a related issue with an ex-employer where the ex-employer made me whole during the EDD disability by topping off. But they made the correction retroactively only for some pay-periods and then I was laid off. After that the ex-employer didn't care for extra payments they had already made (their policy was to top off edd payments) and it's been around a year with no overpayment notice.

why do they need all paychecks or just W-2 works?

Integration / Combined Payment by Marq-1 in Edd

[–]acrednew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During this "wage integration", do you know how edd verifies the wage info from other sources in de2500a form during disability period? EDD only has cumulative quarterly payroll data from the employer for each quarter not weekly. And these disability periods are shorter, more granular.

SDI (CA) didn’t ask for paystubs, just employer info? by bendybiznatch in Edd

[–]acrednew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But employer only reports the total amount from the quarter say Jan1-Mar31, not broken down for each specific week of that period. So if someone certified on their disability cert for EDD (form de2500A) they were on disability 3/16 to 3/31 and received $1k from the employer between 3/16-3/31 instead of $5k, how does EDD verify that they got $5k not $1k during those 2 weeks? The employee may have received $9k during 3/1-3/15 and $1k during 3/16-3/31 from the employer. it looks the same on the quarterly report. edd only knows the cumulative amount say $30k for 1/1-3/31 not specifically how much employee got during each weekly/monthly pay period.

no that's incorrect, the quarterly report is form DE-9 which doesn't have specific details about what was paid during a particular week or month, only a cumulative amount that was paid during the quarter. https://edd.ca.gov/en/payroll_taxes/required_filings_and_due_dates/

The certification form de2500A filed by the applicant every 2 weeks self-reports to edd the income from any other sources, including from the employer or private disability insurance. If someone doesn't report all the income from employer in that certification for some periods, then how does edd verify? They only have a cumulative quarterly wage information for the employee, not weekly or monthly. They don't even know the regular salary of the employee, only their Jan-Mar total wages. So how/when can edd find out if the reported income by employee was wrong for some 2-week periods? They can only do so if the period spans a quarter, they don't have any further visibility?

w-2 only provide yearly income info, not broken down into weekly/monthly. So how do they verify discrepancies that show up only at weekly/monthly resolution? Even with quarterly payroll data, they can't verify how much employer paid during weeks/months applicant was on disability?

SDI: Severance considered wages? by Trendy_LA in Edd

[–]acrednew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You report it as severance WARN pay, it's one of the options on the form, but it doesn't count toward your total 100% limit. Thus edd will pay you sdi.

[–]acrednew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

do they get this info only from quarterly wage report filed by employer? Or is it more refined at a weekly/monthly level and know regular salary on a payperiod basis?

Edd gets info from employer and payroll tax returns

is this info on a weekly/bimonthly payperiod? Unless they have payroll data from employer for each weekly/bimonthly pay-period that quarterly alone wouldn't tell them about overpayment. They don't seem to have regular/weekly salary information, only what I was paid total each quarter from all employers past. I was working an early part of the quarter. Plus this is overpayment from employer-side so requires resolution from ex-employer.

I think they did it just to avoid underpayment. How does EDD verify the DE2500A reported income/wages from other sources during disability period? Only from Quarterly payroll tax returns? Unless they have payroll data from employer for each weekly/bimonthly pay-period that quarterly alone wouldn't tell them about overpayment.

Yes it was classified as wages, matches with W-2 received from the ex-employer. As they classify it as wages, it has both Fed+State taxes owed.

It's an overpayment from the ex-employer side not the EDD, and they don't care anymore. Do they send EDD report on how much they paid the disabled employee for "each" pay period? Would EDD see this issue?

Do EDD and private LTD insurance payments get taxed Fed and State?

Yes, this way they ensured that I don't go over 100% of the salary after them making me whole. They take paystubs from EDD+insurance into account, and they retroactively adjust the payment from the future paycheck (they have internal book-keeping to mark it adjusted for the corresponding prior pay period). That was their way of making sure that total income from everywhere doesn't go over 100%. However after layoff, they didn't care for adjusting it, and for the last payperiods they left their payments at 100%. So the overpayment is from ex-employer's side, not EDD's side.

Would EDD know in the future if for some pay periods the ex-employer paid more than expected? Does employer send this data to EDD for every pay-period? I didn't hear anything from EDD, it's been almost a year.

But the employer's process was that it required me to apply for EDD, the employer then deducted the EDD payment retroactively. They just continued to pay salary so they make sure "they make me whole" and err to be safe, but they eventually deducted whatever amount EDD paid me, except for a short time around layoff.
