Where do I check my NJ temporary-disability claim status?

Practical guidance, useful next steps and official sources for New Jersey residents.

NJBallot Resident Resources

Temporary Disability Insurance and unemployment insurance are different programs. For a New Jersey state-plan disability claim, start on the Division of Temporary Disability and Family Leave Insurance website and choose Check your claim status. Follow the agency's prompts and any requests or notices tied to your claim. If your employer uses an approved private plan, follow that plan's instructions rather than assuming the state lookup contains your case. A status check does not establish eligibility or promise when a payment will arrive.

What to do next

Open the official NJ leave-benefits website below and select Check your claim status. If you have a private plan, use your plan administrator's instructions.
