Retirement tax questions

@dentvod You are posting to an old thread that has had no activity since 2019.    Not quite sure what your tax question is for us in 2025.   If your only income is workers compensation, it is not taxable and you are not required to file a tax return at all unless you have a 1095A for having marketplace health insurance.

 

 

Who has to file?

If you have other income besides the workers comp, then you might need to file, but you do not enter workers comp on a tax return.

 

 

Use this IRS site for other ways to file for free.  There are 8  free software versions available from the IRS Free File site
