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.
If you are in the state of Texas, most disability, both short term and long term disability will cover 60% of your income tax free.

Its sort of like wanting to buy Life Insurance after you die isn't it? I am sure you can get SDI but not to pay you when you take maternity leave. There are three parts to this question and answer: 1 - You can obtain short term disability coverage if you are already pregnant. It will cover you for accidents and illnesses only. Your future pregnancies will be covered if you continue the policy. 2 - Open enrollments are attached to programs you select on a pre-tax basis - per IRS Section 125 rules. You can pay for short term disability on a post tax basis, and enroll at any time. When you pay the premium using post tax dollars, your benefit is tax free. 3 - You should get short term disability at your place of employment. If your employer does not offer the option, its easy to ask for the benefit since you are paying the premium, not your employer. You do not qualify for benefits at your fiance's employer until you are married.
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.

When you buy an investment and then sell it in less than a year, the held longer than one year. Short term gains are taxed at your current federal tax rate and a state tax rate. Long term gains are taxed at 15% for the feds and a state tprofit you've made is called short-term capital gain. Long term capital gain is profit from investments ax(unless you're in the 10% or 15% fed.income tax bracket, then the federal LT gain tax is ZERO in 2008!).
Short offset shorts first, then they offset longs. Your better to have them offset short, as short is taxed at ordinary rate and long at special lower rate. A stock sale is a capital gain/loss transaction.
In many cases yes. Go to irs.gov and search pub 525 and read under "Sickness and Injury Benefits"
No, because there is no tax deductions in your disability which entitles you to receive unemployment.
