Does my Jones Act seaman status end when I am paid off?

 

A: Not necessarily. If you have unfinished business tied to the completed voyage such as returning to pick up your personal gear, you are still entitled to the same rights such as medical treatment and maintenance and cure as you were during the voyage.
