About this service

While SSDI is a federal benefit, it is not always tax-free. The IRS looks at your total income to decide if your benefits are taxable. If you are filing as an individual and your combined income is below a certain level, you likely won't pay taxes on your SSDI. However, if your total income is higher, you may be taxed on up to 85 percent of your benefit amount. It is wise to keep all your financial documents organized to report your income accurately.
