My companys mandatory retirement age is 65, but Its possible for an employee to retire at 55. Im 58 and have to retire on account of sickness. Ill be receiving a weekly disability pension. Can I exclude all or part of this amount from my Income as tax-fre- e sick pay? a recent decision, the IRS said that a taxpayer who retires on disability prior to his companys mandatory retirement age can exclude his disability e payments from income as sick pay up to $100 a week. Previously, the IRS had said that disability payments could be excluded as sick pay only up to the employees earliest retirment age. Under this old rule, because you are 58 and earliest retirement age is 55, you would not have been able to exclude any part of your disability payment as sick pay. However, now you are able to exclude such amounts, up to $100 per week, until mandatory retirement age, which in your case is 65. This recent IRS decision applies to all tax years not barred by the statute of limitations. Thus, persons retired on disability in 1971, 1972 and 1973 and unable to exclude disability payments as sick pay because of operation of the old rule, may now be able to file a Q.
