TWC sent duplicate approval determination letter - should I be worried?

This happens more often than you'd think! TWC sometimes reviews claims as part of their regular quality control process, even months after initial approval. If both determinations say 'approved,' you're fine. They occasionally re-examine claims if something triggered their system - maybe your former employer submitted quarterly wage reports that made the system flag your claim for review. As long as the determination says you're still eligible, your benefits will continue normally. No action needed on your part.

same thing happened to me last month!! got a second letter about the same thing from janurary and freaked out. nothing happened tho and payments kept coming

DO NOT IGNORE THIS!!! I had something similar happen last year and ignored it thinking it was a duplicate. Turns out they were reviewing my claim because someone reported I was working (I wasn't). My payments stopped two weeks later and it took MONTHS to fix!!! CALL THEM IMMEDIATELY to make sure there's not an issue!!!

This is actually fairly common and usually not a cause for concern. When TWC sends a duplicate determination letter that shows the exact same approval decision, it's typically due to one of these reasons: 1. System update or maintenance that triggered automated notices 2. An employer submitted quarterly wage reports that differed from what was on file 3. Random quality control review (TWC reviews a percentage of claims regularly) 4. Another department reviewed your file for routine verification Since both letters show approval and your employer didn't contest anything, your benefits should continue without interruption. If you want peace of mind, you can call TWC to confirm there are no pending issues on your claim, but based on what you've described, this appears to be routine.

I spent days trying to reach TWC about a similar issue last month - busy signals and disconnects constantly. I finally used Claimyr (claimyr.com) and got through to a TWC rep in about 20 minutes. They confirmed mine was just a system glitch from their database maintenance. The service basically holds your place in line and calls you when they connect with TWC. Saved me so much frustration! They have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/V-IMvH88P1U?si=kNxmh025COIlIzKh

My sister works for TWC (not speaking officially just sharing what she told me). These duplicate letters usually happen when they do database maintenance or if someone internally reviewed your claim for quality assurance. As long as both say you're approved, you're good. They have to send a new determination letter anytime they touch your claim file even if nothing changes. It's stupid but that's how their system works.

im on my third claim with twc and this happens like every 5-6 months. just twc being twc. their computers are from the stone age lol

anyone know if we need to do work searches during holiday week? my payment request falls on july 4th

I checked the TWC website, and there's a way to see if you have any pending issues on your claim. Log into your account, go to the 'Claim and Payment Status' section, then look for 'Claim Status' or 'Issues and Determinations.' If everything shows 'Resolved' or there are no pending issues listed, you should be fine. The recent determination letter should also be visible in your correspondence inbox with the status showing 'Approved.'
