I can't get the worksheet for ssa-1099-sm income

 

Retirement tax questions

Any SSA-1099 form, regardless of the suffix, gets entered the same way. So this applies to entering any SSA-1099, SSA-1099-SM, or SSA-1099-R-OP1. And if you are using TurboTax online version, you are not able to view the worksheet since Forms Mode is only available in the desktop version of the product. 

  • Sign into your TurboTax account, see your Tax Timeline, and click the orange Take me to my return button
  • Using the Search box in the upper right corner of the screen, type SSA-1099 and then click on Jump to SSA-1099, which is the first item in the search results.
  • Select Yeslet's work on Social Security benefits and click Continue.
  • Check the first box, Form SSA-1099.
  • Enter the amounts for yourself and/or your jointly-filing spouse, if they received an SSA-1099 also.
    • SSA-1099s for your children and other dependents are not to be reported on your return. They should report it on their own return, but only if they're required to file a return for some other reason (this is uncommon).
  • Then click Continue.

TurboTax will automatically calculate what portion, if any, of your Social Security benefits are taxable.
