Get your taxes done using TurboTax

After you report your SSA-1099 form in TurboTax, there is a question about living abroad. If you accidentally answered yes, Social Security benefits won't be taxed by the U.S. if you lived in a country listed under that question. 

 

 

To check your entries: 

Access your tax return after you've e-filed it or printed it for mailing:

  1. Sign in TurboTax.
  2. Select Tax Home from the menu.
  3. Scroll down to Your tax returns & documents.
  4. Select 2024, and then select Add a State (you're not actually adding a state, this just gets you back in).

To go back to that section:

  1. Open your return
  2. Go to Federal 
  3. Go to Wages and Income
  4. Scroll down to Retirement Plans and Social Security
  5. Select Revisit/Update next to Social Security (SSA-1099, RRB-1099).
