So it says long term disability pay if under the retirement age I'm only 35 like I said I'm 100% service connected disabled
totally and permanently disabled so I can't work but I still take care of the kids it doesn't make sense that I can't get the tax benefits of taking care of them
It sounds like your benefits may qualify as earned income based on your age. Can you clarify what form the benefits are reported on and what boxes on that form have numbers or codes and what the codes are please?
I'm sorry what forms are you talking about the only form that I receive is the one that states I have Insurance from the VA Im not sure who or what I ask for
Please provide some additional information so that we can assist you. The form that ThomasM125 is asking for is the form that you received that shows how much Disability Benefit you received. Is it a form 1099R and what number is in box 7.
Disability payments qualify as earned income depending on: The type of disability payments you get: Disability retirement benefits. @mandyme801
