    Unless he owes back taxes from past deficiencies, the IRS will NOT take it all, but the disability payment, if the disability policy was provided by the employer, IS subject to federal income taxes.

    RUN, do not walk, to your nearest local tax professional to consult with him about your husband's situation, because there are simply too many variables to properly address this issue over this forum.
