Get your taxes done using TurboTax
If there is a difference between the money that was deposited into your account and the exchange rate, there may have been foreign taxes deducted from your social security. If so, then the amount may reflect what the amount was before the taxes were withdrawn. If this is the case, then you would report the amount that is calculated using the exchange rate.
Foreign social security income is generally taxable on your US return, unless you are covered by a "Totalization Agreement". You can find a list of the countries where the US has these agreements HERE. If your country is listed here, you may not need to report your social security.
If no foreign taxes were withheld from your social security, then report the money deposited into your account but first, check to see if you are covered by the totalization agreement I mention above.
