we're both 67 and my husband did not begin to collect his ssi until this year

we understood that we would not be taxed for this as we are below the $$$ criteria However when doing our taxes this year we ran into some confusion and had to ask for online help. I was told that we had to pay now for the lump sum payment he received of $12,000 for the time in arrears that he was eligible.  We now owe the IRS according to Turbo Tax online advisor roughly $2,300!  In speaking with others, I believe this is in error!

HELP!!
