Retirement tax questions
Yes, for this year. If your social security is taxable on your federal return, the same amount will be taxable on your West Virginia tax return.
A new law was passed to change that, but it is effective January 1, 2020. That means your social security may be taxed on this season's state return, but the one you file next year will not tax your social security benefits.
Social security benefits are not always taxed on the federal return. Up to 85% of your social security can be added to your taxable income, depending on the amount of additional income on your tax return.
