Re: Will my ttd amount change?
Yes. In fact you will no longer be a temporary total disability you will be a TPD a temporary partial disability. You will also receive half the money that you do today. BEWARE... if your doctor is giving you a 50% disability you need to actively look for work within your restrictions else you could be found to have voluntary withdrawal from the labor market.
This is why you need an attorney. And if you have an attorney and you did not know this information, I would fire that attorney and get another one.
Best of luck
