Tax on Social Security
TurboTax did not include any social security income as taxable and I got a letter from the IRS. Why didn't TurboTax include taxable SS when I was responsible for tax on that line? This needs to be fixed asap

On your computer (not on a phone)....log into your account.
Then look below the display of Fed and State acceptaces.....there should be a blue line of text to click on that says "Add a State" (you won't actually be adding one)....once you get into your actual tax file...NOW the Tax Tools selection shows up.

I see that your Social Security benefits were excluded on the Social Security worksheet because of treaty benefits. There's a question asking if you lived in Canada, Egypt, Germany, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Romania, or the UK. It's answered yes in the program (see screenshot). The US doesn't tax SS benefits for citizens living in these countries, in an attempt to eliminate double taxation.
Were you living in one of these countries in 2024?
