A.G. and Dorfmont:

Well, after two weeks of searching the Web for an answer,
I've finally gotten a definitive answer!

THANK YOU! Caps are for emphasis, not shouting <G> .

(It was easier for me to search for and find the IQ of
Alsatian dogs than it was this should-have-been-EASY-to-find
tax question: sheesh.) Again, many thanks to both of you!

The only instance in which CASDI is taxable is when the
recipient has been on unemployment and becomes disabled. The
SDI payments are considered a form of and continuation of
unemployment benefits. Otherwise SDI is not taxable.

CASDI is tax-free. For everyone reading this: the reason it
is tax-free is that the insurance premiums were withheld
from your after-tax wages. If some part of your disability
payments had been taxable, you would have received either a
W-2 or 1099-R reflecting a distribution.

Default Disability Insurance: Income?

I've gone to the IRS site and looked this up in their
Publications and I'm *still* not sure I understand it.

I'm receiving California State Disability Insurance. Is, or
is that not, reportable as income on my federal taxes.

Thank you!

Christopher A. Steele

ps. And if it is, should I be expecting some kind of form
from the state indicating how much I've gotten during the
year?
