For how long are Tort income benefits typically paid if you can’t do your previous job?

The correct duration for Tort income benefits, when an individual is unable to return to their previous job, is generally set for a period of 2 years. This aligns with many insurance policies and legal statutes that dictate a specified time frame for benefits to be paid following an accident or injury that impacts an individual's ability to work.

This duration reflects a balance between providing necessary support to individuals during their recovery process and ensuring that they eventually return to work or seek alternative employment options. While there may be variations in specific cases or jurisdictions, the common guideline for Tort income benefits typically caps at the 2-year mark for that particular type of income support.

In contrast, options suggesting indefinite benefits or payments until retirement do not closely align with the standard practices in many jurisdictions, which typically require regular assessments and consideration of recovery progress during the claim period.
