Social Security Taxable Amount Calculation

This appears to be wrong.  An amount is shown on 1b on the SS form.  I did not live abroad.  Where does this come from?  It is the same as my SS benefit amount, basically making it all non-taxable.

After you entered your SSA1099, the next screen asked if you lived in certain foreign countries in 2025.  How did you answer on that screen?

It appears I answered yes to the "Are you a U.S. citizen who lived abroad in one of these countries in 2025?"  I corrected and the issue resolved.  Thanks.
