Hello,
Process Overview
You can check on the status of this document review by going to the claim portal and looking at the document dashboard, which shows the following information:
- What documents are required for your particular type of claim
- Whether each document has been received, is being reviewed, is marked complete or if something is missing
- If the claim manager determines that one or more of your documents is incomplete, a description of what is missing
The following is an example of how the dashboard shows the document review status of a hypothetical bonding claim:
Once all of your documents are reviewed, the claim manager will either approve or deny your claim.
Claim Decision
You will be notified of the claim decision by the same method of communication you selected when submitting your claim. Your claim decision letter will also be available from the CT Paid Leave Aflac Portal.
Claim Approval
If you are approved, Aflac will issue benefit payments in the manner you specified during intake (direct deposit or Visa Debit card).
- Payments are deposited in your bank account or loaded to your Visa Debit card every Tuesday.
- It can take up to 48 hours for funds to reflect in your bank account if you have elected payment via direct deposit.
Note: If no payment type is selected, you will be issued a debit card. No paper checks will be issued.
As a reminder, neither CT Paid Leave nor Aflac will ever send you a text message asking for personal information, including credit card, debit card, or other banking information. If you are contacted in this manner, do not provide this information and please report the attempt by calling Aflac at (877) 499-8606.
If you have chosen to receive your benefits via a Visa Debit card, look in the mail for an envelope from MoneyNetwork®. This packet will include additional information about your Visa Debit card and will include your actual plastic debit card.
- To set-up your USER ID or PASSWORD, login to prepaid.everywherepaycard.com or you may also call MoneyNetwork® Customer Service at 1-866-892-2835.
- If you forget your PIN, you may also call MoneyNetwork® Customer Service at 1-866-892-2835.
- Unlike a bank debit card, your Money Network Card is not linked to your bank account.
- The Money Network Card will not impact your credit score as it is not a credit card.
- Only one card is provided. Additional cards for family members are not available.

If your request for reconsideration is denied (or if you do not want to file a request for reconsideration), you can file an appeal with the CT Department of Labor. The Department of Labor is responsible for hearing appeals for denials of CT Paid Leave claims. View the process to file an appeal.
Extending your CT Paid Leave Benefits
If you need to extend your leave beyond your initially approved dates, you should notify Aflac by calling (877) 499-8606. They will notify you of additional documentation that you will need to provide in order for the extension to be granted. In the case of medical leave for your own serious health condition or caregiver leave, your or your family member's healthcare provider will need to provide documentation to support the extension.Frequently Asked Questions
No, we do not require a medical release to return to work or any other letter from the doctor, but the employee is required to notify their claim manager when they return to work. If any employee receives any benefit payments for the period of time after they return to work, they are required to repay those funds to the Authority.
