THIS IS THE FIRST YEAR I RECIEVED A FORM SSA 1099 ,,,WHERE DO I ENTER THIS ON MY TURBO TAX?

[ToddL99]

Enter Form 1099 SSA in the Social Security interview found under Federal Tax > Wages and Income > Retirement Plans and Social Security (or enter "social security income" in the Search Box of TurboTax online and select "Jump to social security income").

Form 1099 SSA is the tax form sent to people who receive Social Security benefits. It shows the total amount of benefits you received from Social Security in the previous year so you know how much Social Security income to report to IRS on your tax return.
