@Meekearth    Depends...if you have other income...pensions, IRAs, investment income like dividends & interest, or stock/bond/mutual fund sales......then some of your SS may be taxed.  Up to 85% may be included in taxable, at the most.  BUT, if your only income is SS, then you do not have to file unless you have a 1095A for purchased Obamacare med insurance.   Being over/under age 65 is immaterial.   Thus, if you file taxes, you must always enter your SSA-1099 into the tax software...and the software will calculate whether any of it is taxable, and will include whatever is taxable on your form 1040, line 6b

I suggest you do two things:   Check your final pay stub.  If you didn't keep it, it may be online. Contact your employer.  I suspect other people are having this issue. Also, did you have any paid leave during the year? Don't guess!  Make sure of how you should post the W-2.

Alright, what the heck is going on with Intuit's receiving hub for tax returns?  Have attempted multiple times (and yes, restarting the program and computer) since last evening to transmit my return and get the message back, "We're experiencing Internet tansmission problems..."  Come on, at least let users know that there are site-wide issues.  Maybe caused by the severe weather.  But the lack of information is unprofessional...
