Can My Social Security Disability Benefits be Reduced by Workers’ Compensation?

Social Security Disability (SSD)

State Workers’ Compensation benefits are not generally taxable. However, the Social Security benefits may be reduced by the amount of the receipt of your workers’ compensation benefits and to that extent your Social Security benefits may or may not be taxable. (IRS section 86(d)3).
