If you only get SS or SSDI or ssi it is not taxable and you do not have to file a return. And there is no benefit in claiming dependents or deductions. And you can't efile a return with no taxable income. If you want to file you will have to print and mail it.

You likely do not have to file a return when all you have is social security. If you did not receive the third economic impact payment, you may need to file a return to receive it. It would have been $1,400 received early in the year.

You may want to file if you have not yet received the third stimulus payment of $1,400.00. More information can be found in the link below.

Third Economic Impact Payment

Filing requirements for a single taxpayer, over 65 is $14,250.00.

When you are logged into your TurboTax account use the following steps to enter your third stimulus payment or enter zero if you didn't receive it yet.
