Amounts you receive as workers' compensation for an occupational sickness or injury are fully exempt from tax if they are paid under a workers' compensation act or a statute in the nature of a workers' compensation act. The exemption also applies to your survivors. The exemption, however, does not apply to retirement plan benefits you receive based on your age, length of service, or prior contributions to the plan, even if you retired because of an occupational sickness or injury. If part of your workers' compensation reduces your social security or equivalent railroad retirement benefits received, that part is considered social security (or equivalent railroad retirement) benefits and may be taxable. For a discussion of the taxability of these benefits, see Other Income under Miscellaneous Income, later. Go to the IRS gov web site and use the search box for Publication 525 Taxable and Nontaxable income

Compensation income includes earned income such as wages, salaries, net self-employment income, etc. It also includes taxable alimony payments received. It does not include interest, dividends, capital gains, gifts, tax refunds, etc. Even though the general limit for IRA contributions might be $5000, if you don't have $5000 in taxable compensation income, you cannot contribute $5000 to your IRA.
