Seven Day Waiting Period: <\/strong>Injured workers do not get paid if they are only injured and off of work 7 days or less. Compensation starts on the 8th day. If the injury and resulting time off of work lasts more than 3 weeks, the worker gets compensation for that first week.<\/p>\n

Show Cause: <\/strong>\u201cAn order of the Commission directing an individual to appear on a certain date to show cause or explain why the Commission should not issue a specific order or make a certain finding. Oftentimes it pertains to holding the person or company in contempt or liable to a fine. Example: to show cause why an employer with no workers\u2019 compensation<\/a> coverage should not be assessed a monetary penalty for failure to insure for workers\u2019 compensation.” Another example would be a failure of a company or person to respond to a subpoena to appear or for records after being properly served.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Statute of Limitations: <\/strong>The deadline for bringing a claim for benefits. In Virginia this is two years from the date of injury. If the claim is filed, there is also a limitation to re-file if no TTD has been paid. That limitation is 24 months. If you fail to re-file for TTD after 24 months of not receiving said TTD, it is gone forever.<\/p>\n
