Taxes (Federal) can be taken out of Social Security if YOU choose to have them taken out. You just complete a Form W-4V, select how much you want taken out each month (only choices are 7%, 10%, 12%, or 22%). You then mail the form to the Social Security that services you. If this was your question, the Social Security website will provide details. Save yourself some time and use the "chat" function to ask about having taxes taken out and you will get the info quickly.
