What is TAPS? The Texas Association of Public Schools Property and Liability Fund (TAPS) is a self-insurance pool set up under the Texas Interlocal Cooperation Act on September 1, 2001. Membership is limited to public school districts, community colleges and education service centers.
Disability benefits you receive from the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) aren't taxable and don't need to be reported on your return. However, Military Disability Retirement pay could be taxable if reported on form 1099-R.
If disability benefits are your only source of income, you'll almost certainly not owe any federal income tax. But if you're filing as an individual with provisional income between $25,000 and $34,000, up to 50% of your disability benefits are considered taxable income.
