Self-employed
Self-employed people receive their sickness and disability benefits at the end of the month .
The exact dates coincide with the payment of disability benefits .
Payment date discrepancies
Although CM deposits payments strictly according to the payment calendar, you may exceptionally not receive your money on the right day. When does this happen?
- At the start of your disability , because the first payment can only be made once we have all the data to calculate the benefit.
- If you perform an authorized activity.
- When we are obliged to pay (part of) your benefits directly to a creditor.
On some days you are not entitled to benefits. Read here when.
