In this erratum, we revisit the issue of bulk-disorder on proposals to realize an effective p+ip superconductor from spin-orbit coupled materials. Contrary to the claim in [Phys. Rev. B 83, 184520 (2011)], we show that the pair breaking effects of bulk-disorder are negligible, and that bulk disorder does not suppress the induced superconductivity. This argument does not apply to our conclusions regarding impurities residing in the spin-orbit coupled material or disorder at the interface to the bulk superconductor, both of which tend to suppress superconductivity unless spin-orbit coupling is large.
