Best Answer

Amounts you receive as workers' compensation for an occupational sickness or injury are fully exempt from tax if they are paid under a workers' compensation act or a statute in the nature of a workers' compensation act. The exemption also applies to your survivors. The exemption, however, does not apply to retirement plan benefits you receive based on your age, length of service, or prior contributions to the plan, even if you retired because of an occupational sickness or injury.

If part of your workers' compensation reduces your social security or equivalent railroad retirement benefits received, that part is considered social security (or equivalent railroad retirement) benefits and may be taxable. For a discussion of the taxability of these benefits, see Other Income under Miscellaneous Income, later.

Does the cliam check go to me or the auto body shop?

The initial claim check will be sent to you normally. However, this check can be signed over to the shop once the repairs are complete. Typically a shop will have a supplement on the repairs and the cost will be more than the original check. At that point the shop and ins company begin communicating the difference and the ins company will pay shop direct for the additional charges.
