Applied Sept 2024. Just hit 180 days and I called in to find out the status has been updated to completed. I have not yet received my letter.
I had been going online for weeks and every time I checked “payments” it said you have no payments pending.
Today when I clicked “Estimated Benefits” this is what I saw.
*** Disability benefits**
Our records show you are currently receiving a CPP disability benefit.
I won’t know 100% until I get the official letter, but it looks to me like I was successful.
Fingers crossed.
Good for you! I applied Dec 2023 and didn’t get that message until September 2024Hopefully this relieves some of the stress. I used the CPPD workbook and it really helped me immensely cover all my bases.
Hopefully you will get the letter soon. Although mine took til October to actually show up. Take care, kind regards!
Thanks Mike for sharing. I’m in the process of getting my application ready so that’s good to know yours took approx 6 months. Hopefully you’ll get the official letter of approval soon.
So I received the payment details letter before the actual notification letter. I stated my disability started Oct 1/2023 and the letter has payments starting Jan 1/2024. I guess they can only go back 12 months?
Hi Mike. When they told me I was approved they said they subtract a 3 month period. I wasn’t!n’t too concerned as I have to hand it all of it over to my insurance company.
