Depends. If you paid the premiums with after-tax dollars, then the payouts are tax-free. However, if your employer paid them and did not dedcut them from your pay, then your payouts are taxable. In addtion to that, if you split the cost of the premiums with your employer, and your half was paid with after-tax dollars, than the same percentage your employer paid is the percentage of payout that becomes taxable.

Can a judgment take my refund because i was sick and coudlnt work?

I understand you are trying to make it sound better for your side but you really need to give me just the facts to get a correct answer. I assume that you are asking if your disability or unemployment payments are taxable or not. The easiest answer is that if you received a form for this income, it must be filed on your return. All unemployment payments are taxable. On disability payments made from a private insurance company, of the premiums are paid by your employer or if you pay the premiums with pre-tax money the amount received are taxable. If you paid the premium yourself with after tax dollars they are not taxable.
