If you are approved for disability benefits, until when will your benefits continue?

It depends on your policy provisions. 

Typically, your disability insurance benefits will continue until:

• 1. Your disability ceases or improves sufficiently for you to return to your prior job or any other gainful occupation;
• 2. Your disability insurance policy is exhausted based on age limitations;
• 3. Your disability insurance benefits are cut-off or terminated for one of several reasons, including failure to continue physician treatment, fraud, etc.
