Taxable Disability Payments
Question: are lump sum disability payments taxable?
I was recently declared disabled by social security after a long appeals process. They are supposed to pay for the 2 years i should have been getting payments. All that income will come to me this year, and i'm concerned about tax implications. Should I expect to be taxed on all that income this year?
