Social Security Retirement/Disability/Survivors benefits are reported on a form SSA-1099 and the benefits received are reported on a federal tax return. The benefits may be taxable depending on the amount of other income you have entered on your tax return.
However, if the Social Security benefits are the Only income to be reported on the tax return, then there is no reason or need to file a tax return.

READ the answer directly above your post.
I need help filing my SSA 1099 from 2018. I never filed in 2018, I had voluntarily federal taxes withheld. Can I still file?
Did you have any other income for 2018? Are you married? If you only have SSA-1099 income you can file a return to get back any withholding taken out. You have to print and mail prior year returns. It should be simple to fill out 2018 by hand.
Here is the IRS 2018 Form 1040
