No, the Social Security benefits reported in Box 6a on the Form 1040 are not all taxable on Line 6b.
Up to 85% of Social Security Retirement/Disability/Survivors benefits becomes taxable when all your other income plus 1/2 your social security reaches:
- Married Filing Jointly - $32,000
- Single or Head of Household - $25,000
- Married Filing Separately - 0
Look at your tax return.
