    To my knowledge, disability income( SSD) is not considered income at all, including IRS.

    Don't quote me on this, this is second hand info.

    I am interested as to the answers by the experts also, this is another reason for my post,

    It's quite complicted, you know, it's the IRS but I believe the IRS can attach some if not all. Best to read the IRS publications or call them.
