  2. In TurboTax, search for the term social security benefits and then select the Jump to link at the top of your search results.

  3. On the Social Security Benefits screen, answer Yes and select Continue.

    • If you received multiple SSA-1099s, add up the amounts for each box and enter them together.
    • Do not include SSA-1099s for dependents. Those should be reported on the dependent's return, but only if they are required to file a return (this is uncommon).
