Doing Son's 20 Tax Ret; he receives SSDI as a minor under Mother (me). I was told by SSDI not to put this under SSI as it s/b SSDI for taxes, don't see SSDI option?

There is no SSDI option on TurboTax. SSDI told me not to post it to SSI. Sons Income as a minor of me receives SSDI. If I don't have option, dont know how to file his Tx Ret

Unless he has other income to $25,000 you don’t have to report his SSDI.

No you don't report ssi supplemental security income.  But ssi Is not  Social Security or SSDI.  You do need to report SS or SSDI.  You should have a SSA-1099 for SSDI.  You DO enter it under Social Security.

 

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

 

2020 1040 line 6a is the gross Social Security amount and 6b is the taxable part of Social Security.

 

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

If they only get ssi or SS, SSDI or a SSA-1099 they don't have to file a return and nobody reports it.

And by the way, ssi stands for supplemental security income.  It is different than Social Security.  You don't get a SSA-1099 for ssi and you do not report ssi on your tax return.
