Retired Oct 8, 2021...only source of income  for 2022 just Social Security. I closed a small IRA.    I did receive a 5498 form. Nothing else.  Do I Put both amounts on tax form....or half of my social security and the full IRA amount added together.  Or exactly how do I handle this on my taxes forms. I tried doing this on turbo tax but it wsn't plain on how to do this. Thank you

    The IRA will send you a 1099R not a 5498.  Don't know why you got that.  Did you made a contribution or rollover in 2022?   You enter both the 1099R and SSA-1099 from Social Security.  For Social Security you enter the full amount in box 5.  Turbo Tax will figure out how much if any is taxable.

     

    Up to 85% of Social Security becomes taxable when all your other income plus 1/2 your social security, reaches:

    Married Filing Jointly: $32,000

    Single or head of household: $25,000

    Married Filing Separately: 0

     

    Enter a SSA-1099, SSA-1099-SM or RRB-1099  under

    Federal Taxes on the left side or top

    Wages and Income

    Then scroll down to Retirement Plans and Social Security

    Then the second line - Social Security (SSA-1099. RRB-1099) - click the Start or Revisit  button

     

    Enter a 1099R under

    Federal Taxes Tab or Personal (Home & Business)

    Wages & Income at the top

     

    Then scroll way down to Retirement Plans and Social Security,

    Then IRA, 401(k), Pension Plans (1099R) - click Start or Revisit

     

    There are 4 boxes.  Be sure to pick the right box for the kind of 1099R you got.

     

    If you are filing a Joint return be sure to pick which person it is for.

    They have until Jan 31 to send the 1099R.  Mine haven't come yet either.   So just wait.    I just got my Social Security SSA-1099 yesterday.
