I worked for the state. I did not get workers comp until all my sick leave was used up. It came from a separate outfit. I did not get 2 checks. Once I could walk and drive a car, the doctor sent me back to work.

Receiving a one-time settlement from worker's comp usually does not affect Social Security payments. However, if you receive ongoing workers' comp benefits, it may offset your Social Security disability benefits. It's recommended to consult with a financial advisor or Social Security representative for personalized advice.

Check your state laws, all states are different when it comes to worker's comp regulations.
