Last week the IRS updated its public guidance on the “Tax Relief for Victims of Terrorists Attacks” in order to ensure that all 9/11 survivors and their families are aware that they may be entitled to a tax break on their disability payments including social security disability.
The World Trade Center Health Program (WTCHP) was established under James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act of 2010. It provides free health care and medical monitoring for first responders, area workers, residents and survivors who were exposed to the toxic air and debris during 9/11 and the aftermath. Whether or not you have become ill from this exposure you should still seek medical monitoring and/or treatment from this program. Not only is the care free, it can also be a benefit should you plan to file a 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund claim.
