The taxable part of your Social Security income depends on your total income and your filing status. When your Modified Adjusted Gross Income (MAGI) exceeds the base amount for your filing status, some of your Social Security income is taxable. TurboTax calculates the taxable part of your Social Security income when you enter all of your income.
Refer to the TurboTax Help articles How does receiving Social Security affect my taxes? and s my Social Security income taxable? For additional information.
