Get your taxes done using TurboTax

To clarify, what line in the worksheet does 0 appear and are you trying to determine what the taxable amount is? If you entered the social security information in your return together with all your other income, you can go to tax tools>tools>view tax summary.

 

Select preview my 1040 on the left side of your screen and look at what is on line 6B on your 1040 to see what your taxable social security income is. Use this method if you are in the online version of turbo Tax. if you are in the desktop version, select forms and look on your 1040 Box 6B.

 

A rule of thumb is  take one half of your Social Security benefits and add that amount to all your other income, including tax-exempt interest. If this amount is between $25,000 and $34,000, you may have to pay income tax on up to 50 percent of your benefits. Over $34,000, it may be 85% of your benefits.
