The taxable status of short term disability depends upon how you pay the premium. If you pay for short term disability at work via pre-tax deductions, the benefit will be taxable. If you pay with after tax deductions, you keep the entire benefit free of any taxes.


Canada short term disability is it taxable income?

If you are referring to Short-Term Disability Insurance, it is taxable if your employer made the contribution, and not taxable if you made the contribution. This is because it is treated as a taxable benefit from employment that you have not been taxed on already. Please let me know if you are referring to something else. Thanks, Ragu HandyTax (Disability Tax Credit Consultants)

Who pays disability income?

Disability income can be paid by a private insurance company that is licensed and authorized to issue disability income policies in the state of policy issuance. The policy can provide short-term or long-term benefits, depending upon its terms. It is designed to replace income lost due to a disabling sickness or accident specified in the policy. Often, short-term disability insurance is furnished as a benefit of employment by employers for eligible employees. In those cases, the employer may either have purchased a group short-term disability policy, or self-insure for the payment of short-term disability benefits. In general, if one purchases private disability coverage and him/herself pays the premiums for it, the benefits that are paid are not taxable.
