What if I got hurt years ago but don’t have a case yet?

Per FS 440.19(1), you have to file a PFB within two years of the date on which you knew or should have known that your injury (or death) arose out of work performed in the course and scope of employment. If you do not do this, you may have violated the Statute of Limitations (“SOL”) and you may be forever barred from receiving work comp benefits again.
