Texas Impairment Rating Payout Calculator

Enter your details below to estimate your Impairment Income Benefits (IIBs).

*Estimates based on 2026 TDI-DWC maximums ($890.00) and minimums ($191.00). This is for informational purposes and not legal advice.

To ensure accuracy for Texas claims, the following rules are programmed into the tool:

  • Average Weekly Wage (AWW): This is usually based on the 13 weeks of pay immediately preceding your injury.

  • Impairment Income Benefits (IIBs) Rate: Your weekly rate is 70% of your AWW.

  • State Maximums: For the 2026 fiscal year (starting October 1, 2025), the maximum weekly IIB is $890.00. Even if you earn a high salary, your benefit cannot exceed this cap.

  • Payment Duration: Texas law provides 3 weeks of payments for every 1% of your impairment rating. For example, a 10% rating equals 30 weeks of checks.

  • Eligibility: These benefits typically begin the day after you reach Maximum Medical Improvement (MMI), which is the point where a doctor determines your condition will not significantly improve with further treatment.
