Where do i enter my wife’s income from from SSA-1099-SM?

[KatrinaB48]

All SSA-1099 forms get entered in the same place. Follow the directions below to enter your SSA-1099-SM::

1. Open (continue) your return in TurboTax if it's not already open.

2. In TurboTax, search for the term social security benefits and then select the Jump to link at the top of your search results.

3. On the Social Security Benefits screen, answer Yes and select Continue.
4. Check the first box, then enter the amounts from your form(s) where indicated.
   • If you received multiple SSA-1099s, add up the amounts for each box and enter them together.
   • Do not include SSA-1099s for dependents. Those should be reported on the dependent's return, but only if they are required to file a return (this is uncommon).
5. Select Continue and follow the onscreen instructions.

Do I have to report my wife's and our son's SSA-1099 on our taxes? I'm the only working member of the family. No one else work and make money. I don't have any SSA-1099 because I'm still younger than the retirement age.

You report your spouse's SSA-1099 on your tax return.  You do NOT report your son's SSA-1099 on your tax return.  If that is his only income he does not have to file a tax return.
