I think the answer is yes, sorry. Nothing changes for that. You always pay tax on the gross amount in box 1 of the W2. Box 1 includes the SS wages and Medicare wages in boxes 3&5.
And part of your Social Security benefits might be taxable too. Up to 85% of Social Security becomes taxable when all your other income plus 1/2 your social security, reaches:
Married Filing Jointly: $32,000
Single or head of household: $25,000
Married Filing Separately: 0
