@Pozorm , having gone through this thread and generally agreeing with the comments/answers/suggestion of my colleague @Opus 17 , I would still like answers to the following questions:

(a) Are you currently in the USA or in Poland ? Is US your main home or do you also have a main home in Poland?  I ask because  US-Poland tax treaty refers to "citizen and resident" rather than just resident or citizen.

(b) The Social Security/Pension that you referring to in your post is based on govt. employment or private employment ?  I ask because the US-Poland tax treaty   refers to ONLY " Govt. functions " and not  specifically  "Social Security" while the US technical explanation refers/clarifies the " govt. functions" to include  Social Security equivalent etc.

(c) Is this your first year recognizing Polish pension/Social Security ?  How old are you  ?  ( more than 59-1/2 or 62 or 65  or what ?

 

US-Poland tax treaty is in many respects and outlier  and is quite old (1974) and with no updates and therefore needs a lot of parsing.

Note that general suggestions by my colleague @Opus 17   are still valid 

 

I will circle back once I hear from you --yes ?
