Brian is a machinist. For the past seven years, he’s worked for a company that offers a group benefits plan. Under that plan, the premiums for long-term disability coverage are entirely paid by the employees. Last year, an injury forced Brian to stop working for eight months. After a four-month waiting period, during which he collected Employment Insurance (EI) benefits, Brian received long-term disability (LTD) benefits from the group plan’s insurer. Brian is now preparing his income tax return and wonders about the tax implications of the different benefits he received while on disability. What statement accurately describes the tax treatment of Brian’s EI and LTD benefits?
