My wife is disable and no longer receiving benefits except $6655 of social security and $1734 are deducted for her medical insurance can I claim her as a dependent?

posted

No not as a dependent. A spouse is never a dependent. You just file a Joint return together. You need to enter her SSDI on the Joint tax return. She should get a SSA-1099 for it.

Enter a SSA-1099, SSA-1099-SM or RRB-1099 under

Federal Taxes on the left side or top

Wages and Income

Then scroll down to Retirement Plans and Social Security

Then the second line - Social Security (SSA-1099. RRB-1099) - click the Start or Revisit button

Do I need to file if my husband and I don't work but received marketplace insurance that we have never used
