WC Benefits Are Not Taxable

Workers compensation benefits are not taxable. When you are receiving W-2s and 1099s from your employers, you will get nothing from the insurance company because it's not taxable income. You don't have to declare it as income because it's a disability benefit. Talk to your accountant if you have one. Make sure he or she is familiar with IRC 104. https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/26/104
