Are My Social Security Disability Benefits Taxable?

Social Security disability benefit recipients often ask if their benefit is taxable.

If you are approved for Social Security disability benefits, your benefits may be taxable. You may have tax obligations if you have other sources of income besides your disability payment, or if your spouse earns a substantial income, and there also may be other factors that may affect your tax situation.

Taxable Social Security benefits may include monthly Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI). Although, Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments are not considered taxable income.

If you have income in addition to your benefits, you may have to file a return even if none of your benefits are taxable. Each personal financial situation with regard to Social Security disability benefits can be unique.
