Quick Hits: How long does it take to receive the first Workers’ Compensation check in PA?

As a Montgomery County Workers Comp lawyer, I know that you need money.  That is why I don't charge any upfront fees for my services.  

To get your first check, you must be out of work for seven days before benefits are due. The seven days includes weekends.


Benefits are payable on the eighth day.  You receive a retroactive payment for the first seven days once the injured worker has been out of work for 14 days.  The worker normally would receive the first check within 21 days once the seven days period has been satisfied.
