I am in the income portion of my taxes, do i have to declare my disability payments that comes from the VA? also what about any money that comes from my GI Bill?

No, your VA Disability Benefits are not taxable income. The following is taken directly from the IRS website IRS Information for Veterans:

"VA Disability Benefits
Do not include disability benefits you receive from the VA in your gross income. In particular some of the payments which are considered disability benefits include:

• Disability compensation and pension payments for disabilities paid either to Veterans or their families,
• Grants for homes designed for wheelchair living,
• Grants for motor vehicles for Veterans who lost their sight or the use of their limbs, or
• Benefits under a dependent-care assistance program."

Additionally, education and training benefits provided to veterans under the GI Bill are not taxable income.
