No, once you begin receiving worker’s compensation benefits, you do not have to pay taxes on those benefits. The reason behind this is that because this is a source of income that you did not technically earn. If your benefits for some reason become reduced and there has not been a change in your medical condition, then you should contact your South Carolina worker’s compensation attorney immediately.
