Frequently Asked Questions
Is FECA Made Simple part of the U.S. Department of Labor?
No. It is an independent educational resource. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by DOL, OWCP, or another federal agency.
Can the guides replace a lawyer or representative?
No. The products are educational resources and organizational tools. They are not individualized legal advice, representation or a guarantee of benefits.
Where should I verify FECA procedures?
Use current official DOL/OWCP sources, especially the FECA filing guidance, current Procedure Manual and current FECA transmittals.
Can I use these resources if my claim is already open?
Yes. Many resources are designed for active claims, including evidence organization, wage-loss tracking, adverse decisions and schedule-award preparation.
Do you guarantee that a claim will be accepted or a benefit awarded?
No. Claim outcomes depend on the facts, evidence, applicable law and OWCP's decisions.
