I have a question about claiming workers comp on taxes. Do you claim workers comp on taxes as taxable income?

Regarding your question: do you claim workers comp on taxes, the answer is no. You are not subject to claiming workers comp on taxes because you need not pay tax on income from a workers compensation act or statute for an occupational injury or sickness. However, retirement plan benefits are taxable if either of these apply:

• You retire due to your occupational sickness or injury
• Your workers compensation payments reduce your Social Security or railroad retirement benefits.

Also, you might need to include workers compensation as income if:

• You received the payments for an injury.
• You previously deducted related medical expenses.
