No that can only be done by the courts.

A little more...As it says above, your employer cannot force you to release medical records.

Can a person receiving workers compensation benefits file for a tax return?

No you won't likely be receiving a tax return in the mail like you have in the past. The IRS is getting away from providing paper copies of tax returns. You pretty much have to do it electronically these day.

HOWEVER...

If what you are asking is whether you will get a tax REFUND while getting workmens compensation then there simply is not enough information provided to give you an accurate answer. We'd need to know what other income you had as well. We'd need to know HOW MUCH you received in WC. We'd need to know your filing status. We'd need to know how many Exemptions you qualify to claim. All of that just to be able to determine whether you had any Taxable Income or not. Then we could likely determine your Tax on the taxable income. Then we would have to see if you qualified for any "non-refundable credits" that could be used to offset the Tax.

Then we'd have to determine if you were liable for any additional taxes. After all that then we would know your Total Tax figure. We could compare that against your income tax withholdings plus any "refundable credits" you might qualify for to find out if you are going to qualify for a REFUND.

It's not an EASY process and can't be answered just "off the cuff".
