Can I use my SSI income to file a taxes? I did not work in 2016 and received SSI benefits.

Get your taxes done using TurboTax

No, you cannot.  SSI income is not considered taxable and you are not required to file a tax return if that is your only income.  If you file, all return will show is zeros, there is no benefit of filing.
