Retirement tax questions

It's impossible to give you even a wild guess on this, since it's know known exactly what the settlement was for and what portion of it, if any, was a refund. But you can expect the payer of the settlement to send you some type of tax reporting document at tax time, and you'll deal with it then. Most likely it will be reported to you on a 1099-MISC in box 3 of that form.
