How do I demonstrate my disability in Toronto?

An insured individual must show that their accident or disease matches the policy’s definition of “total disability” before they may start receiving benefits from their long-term disability insurance policy. Most of the time, a person is deemed fully handicapped when they cannot significantly execute the tasks of their vocation during the first 24 months of disability. However, only some insurers have the exact definition. The definition of “completely handicapped” alters after 24 months of incapacity and requires that the individual be unable to undertake any activity for which they may be qualified by education, training, or experience.

A claimant must present a written declaration from a doctor describing the nature and extent of the policyholder’s condition to establish that the injury qualifies as a disability. In addition, medical data, such as clinic notes, test results, MRIs, x-rays, exam findings, and surgery reports, are frequently needed as objective proof of a disability.
