We received a FORM SSA-1099 for our son who is deceased. How and where do I enter net benefit amount in Box 8 on our 2025 Tax Return?

I am sorry it is Box 5

To enter social security income, please see Where do I enter an SSA-1099?

Whose ssn is on the SSA-1099?  Enter it  under that ssn.  If that person already gets their own Social Security SSA-1099 then add them togther before you enter it.

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

Federal Taxes (Personal for Home&Business)

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
