I became disabled due to a brain aneurysm and was forced to file SSD. Do I qualify for the Disability Exclusion?

Does being on SSD, qualify for the disability exclusion?

If SSDI is your only income, none of it is taxable and you are not required to file a tax return. If you also had other income, up to 85% of the SSDI may be taxable. TurboTax will calculate the correct taxable amount.
