What is the issue?   What kind of tax form did you enter?

Did you enter a SSA-1099?  Social Security is on 1040 line 6a and any taxable amount on 6b.

 

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

 

To see the Social Security Benefits Calculation Worksheet  in Turbo Tax Online version you would have to save your return with all the worksheets to your computer.   Or if you are using the Desktop CD/Download Software you can switch to Forms Mode (click Forms in the upper right) and click on SS in the list on the left side.

 

Before filing,  You can preview the 1040 or print the whole return
