Yes, if you are receiving Social Security disability payments.

Not if you were paying for your own policy yourself. Tax free benefit. 4lifeguildMaybe. Disability payments can considered tobe partially or fully taxable income.
The government can garnish short term disability payments but no one else can. This is usually for back student loans or taxes.
No
Reg. 31.3121(a)(4)-1 says no FICA after 6 months: § 31.3121(a)(4)-1 Payments on account of sickness or accident disability, or medical or hospitalization expenses. The term ''wages'' does not include any payment made by an employer to, or on behalf of, an employee on account of the employee's sickness or accident disability or the medical or hospitalization expenses in connection with the employee's sickness or accident disability, if such payment is made after the expiration of 6 calendar months following the last calendar month in which such employee worked for such employer. Such payments are excluded from wages under this exception even though not made under a plan or system. If the employee does not actually perform services for the employer during the requisite period, the existence of the employer- employee relationship during that period is immaterial.
You should consult with a tax specialist, but generally employer paid disability insurance benefits are taxable.
Can you file on the taxes that are taken out of long term disability check
if your long term disability is integrated with social security disability, then yes. This is the case for most employer paid long term disability plans, or your employee benefits package. If the Long-Term DI policy is an individual plan, not through your employer - you could receive the full base benefit if it's not integraded with Social Security Disability Benefits.
Not by a judgment creditor. They are subject to garnishment for child support, federal tax arrearages and in some cases spousal maintenance (alimony).
if I am receiving short term disability and my company is bought out and I need to go on long term disability will I be covered for long term?
Incarceration? Like in jail? No, its not a disability to be in jail be a long time.
