Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You are in the correct section, but if there was no Social Security payments in 2021, then enter zero for Taxable Social Security benefits in 2021. 

 

I think the previous answer was saying you were going about it correctly, (on the right screens) 

but yes, change the taxable amount to zero. 

Zero in box 5 if no Social Security was received in 2021 and Zero taxable in 2021 on the screen that follows.
