Taxpayer is totally disabled due to loss of kidney. He is receiving Social Security disability & union disability. IRC section 105(c) states that if taxpayer is permanently or totally disabled due loss of body part or body function, then disability is not taxable. In 2001 tax return was filed showing payments as non taxable and IRS accepted it. In 2002-2004 they will not accept SSA disability payments as non taxable.

Does anyone have experience with SSA disability and taxability?

Taxable; payments to disabled taxpayer are reported to him/her on Social Security 1099 form.

Would/might be different if payments were from a private insurer.
