Aggregate disability payments for a TD claim in 2006 shall not extend for more than how many weeks?

• A. 104 Weeks From Commencement of TD
• B. 104 Weeks From DOI
• C. 240 Weeks From Commencement of TD
• D. 240 Weeks From DOI

Answer: (A)

Temporary disability payments are capped in a single TD claim. The limit is 104 weeks, and the clock starts not from the injury date but from when TD benefits actually commence (the first day benefits become payable, after any waiting period). So the aggregate TD payments cannot exceed 104 weeks from the start of TD, within that two-year window. The other options don’t fit because they tie the limit to the injury date or to a 240-week span, which applies to other types of disability benefits, not temporary disability. For example, if TD begins on a given date, the 104-week cap ends 104 weeks later, regardless of when the injury occurred.
