If I collected Disability payments in 2013 - on what line (or are they exempt) do they appear as income - Are they considered wages?
Disability income can be paid by a private insurance company that is licensed and authorized to issue disability income policies in the state of policy issuance. The policy can provide short-term or long-term benefits, depending upon its terms. It is designed to replace income lost due to a disabling sickness or accident specified in the policy. Often, short-term disability insurance is furnished as a benefit of employment by employers for eligible employees. In those cases, the employer may either have purchased a group short-term disability policy, or self-insure for the payment of short-term disability benefits. In general, if one purchases private disability coverage and him/herself pays the premiums for it, the benefits that are paid are not taxable.
In many cases yes. Go to irs.gov and search pub 525 and read under "Sickness and Injury Benefits"

The short versiion... bills that aresubmitted to a bank from another bank for collection and payment.
A firm would delay the payment of Accounts Payable because they could use the money to invest in short term investments and earn some return
you can either find a disability attorney to assist you or call and file an appeal claim directly with the short term disability. Is this for Workmen's comp or a federal disability like SSDI or with a insurance company like Aflac?
Yes, consult with you employer for FMLA forms and short term disability coverage.
If it is directly related to your disability and that is included in your short term disability policy then yes it would be covered. But if it is just because you dont want to work due to your pregnancy than it will not be covered. Disability is just what it means that you are disabled.
I don't see why not.
Ohio does not have a state mandated short term disability program. The amount you can claim will depend on your individual policy details. Your policy should provide this information.
You have to check your disability policy.If you have a private short term disability policy, there will be language specifying when benefits are paid if you were not working prior to the disabling event.Filing a claim is the best way to find out. All they can do is deny the claim. If the benefit is paid, you made a tidy sum for a few hours of paperwork.
No, not unless the termination is based on your work performance prior to the disability. You may want to have a good workers compensation attorney talk with you. You could have a wrong-full termination and/or discrimination of disability's claim.
yes you do have to file state disability in order to get short term disability.
Under most disability plans if you were on disability prior to termination the benefit continue. Most companies will not terminate you if they believe the disability is short term because they expose themselves to potential liability for wrongfull termination.
I am having a bladder operation the end of this month that is going to keep me from work for 60 days. I am wanting to know if I qualify for short term disability during this time
No, there is not disability for just someone that is short. If the short person has a medical problem, they may qualify for disability.
