Mother is 93 receives SS and 3000. on. 1099R. Does she have to file income tax?

[Ashby · Accepted solution]

If that is all the income she has to file, then no she does not have to file a tax return.

Her standard deduction is $12,000 which would wipe out the $3k and her SS is not taxable at all with only the small amount of additional income.
