Get your taxes done using TurboTax
That depends on how you paid the
premiums for the short term disability. If the employer shared in the cost for
the premiums, then yes, the short term disability is taxable. The payments
(claim payments) will be taxable based on the proportion the employer paid
towards your premiums, and the portion paid by you if you used after tax
payroll deductions. If you paid for the premiums entirely by yourself
using after-tax dollars, then the payments (claim payments) are not
taxable.
