married filing separately, and you and your spouse lived apart all year
- $32,000 if you’re married filing jointly
- $0 if you’re married filing separately, and you and your
spouse lived together at all during the year
Up to 50% of
your SSDI is taxable if your income is more than those amounts. Also, up to 85%
of your SSDI is taxable if half of your SSDI plus all your other income is more

married filing separately, and you and your spouse lived apart all year
- $44,000 if you’re married filing jointly
