Hi dzanzio and trooper

Here is Kristine Hunter's direct line 902-455-8140.

I also sent an e-mail to Kristine and she forwarded to Peter Driscoll on June 8th. and was suppose to hear back but still haven't heard anything.

Good writeup

If you will permit me teentitan, your advice is the best, I would just like to add that regardless of your own particular situation, the adjudication process will require that the member provide updated "Physician's Statement" and Financial Statement's(TAX records). If you don't get those documents to McInnes Cooper, they won't be able to Adjudicate on your behalf, and in accordance with SISIP's policy, they need those doc's in order to review your file for the purpose of determining whether you "continue to meet their definition of ""Total Disability"

      "the individual is incapacitated by an active, medically determinable physical or mental impairment which prevents him/her from performing any and every duty of any substantially gainful occupation or employment for which he/she is reasonably qualified by education, training or experience"

I recommend, as I did, that you send copies of all your records "Registered Mail" so they have them. I think that I somehow got in there quickly, because apparently (heard it through the grapevine) the adjudication process is on hold. Nevertheless, once they had my doc's, it took them only 11 days to rule in my favour and I was re-instated. As I mentioned, everyone's situation will vary, but I too did SISIP Rehab and Vocational Training and worked on and off over the years, but "unable to find/retain gainful employment". SISIP will deduct those hours that I worked from my retro and life goes on.

I realize that in some cases, eligibility for SISIP LTD benefits going forward isn't always cut and dry, but get the doc's to MC and SISIP and then worry about all the other stuff. Once the adjudication process is started, you have the right to appeal any decision. Yes, according to the settlement, Manual Life has the final say, but you will get to submit any and all pertinent information that supports your particular case. I hope this will help.

You are welcome, and best of luck.

ok thanks for that info trooper, much appreciated my friend

That's the number for Kristine.
No I am not in the same boat as you, but I can say that I have got answers from that number on other issues regarding the Law suit.
You have to stay on top of things, and you are entitled to get answers.

hey trooper is that a number for dan wallace or kristine...i did send another e mail on 7 july and they told me i would hear from him shortly...did you have to do the same thing

dzanzio, I would call this number 902 444 8417 that will get you in touch with MC.

I would ask them why have I not got and answer yet.

hey turbo..they told me the same thing, said i was working part time and that i was able to work..so i sent an e mail to the lawyers on june 16 and they said dan wallace would get back to me...havent heard a word from dan wallace and i dont expect to at this point....

Put what you just stated into a letter and ensure you mail it to both SISIP and your local MP to start. If you need any assistance, I can give it a go with writing the letter!

Best of luck!
