Do we get a 1099 for for short term disability? I asked my HR and they said no, but when I went to do my taxes, it seems like I need one. Anyone have an answer? (I'm paperless)
Thanks
Short-term disability benefits are taxable if your employer paid the premiums. ... Your claims payments will be subject to taxation in proportion the employer paid. The insurance company may withhold an appropriate amount from your claims check and report the income to the IRS and send you a 1099 statement.
I did not get a 1099 when I was out a few years back for Hernia surgery. I received my direct deposits via normal channels from Target, so it was including my W2.
