yes I was retired at 50 and boy howdy I wasnt ready.....but we bought a camper and have been camping and enjoying life at a slower pace..some days as you know you stay in the recliner and some days you are fishing on the bank....we camp host here at cedar lake so we get our spot free. and you cant beat free

Wow,
I had to take a cross country drive to Colorado last week to rescue my niece from an abusive "boyfriend"....I hauled butt, left last Saturday and got home Wednesday. That was with taking Monday visiting family for the day in another area! OMG!!! LONG HAUL.

Ok, anyways, so today in the mail I finally received paperwork from NYS Comptroller approving my Article 15 Disability Retirement. YEAH!!! They are back dating it to the date of application, Nov 22,2010. Here is my question: On their website it says that Article 15 is NOT offset by SS OR wc....how could that be? anyone know anything about that? I believe article 15 is disability from on the job injury, could that have anything to do with it?

I am so excited, I will get my medical coverage back. Not sure how it works as a "retired person" but as a worker, they paid medical in full. That was really all I wanted as that was killing us financially every month. They always send paperwork on the weekends when you can't call your attorney!!!Big Grin

How long is a reasonable time for a decision on NYS disability claim? I have been waiting for almost a year for a decision .
