Workers' compensation benefits are generally not considered taxable income, but they can impact eligibility for other benefits. When applying for programs like Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Medicaid, these benefits may be factored in when assessing income levels. It's important to check the specific guidelines of each program, as rules can vary by state and type of benefit. Always consult a benefits counselor or legal expert for personalized advice.
