It is hard to answer definitively with such limited information; however, based upon what you have described, it looks like what you may have is a W-2 reporting short term disability payments paid by a third party as a company provided benefit (i.e. you did not pay for it with after tax funds). That would be reported on a W-2, and is taxable. Long term disability usually doesn't start paying until you have been out between three and six months. Payments made under a LTD plan would not be reported on a W-2. If taxable, they would be reported on a 1099. I suggest you contact your company's HR/Benefits department for clarification.
