Why am I paying taxes on all of my social security when I didn’t in the past. Only other income I have is from my pension.

You are not paying taxes on all of your Social Security benefits.

Up to 85% of Social Security Retirement/Disability/Survivors benefits becomes taxable when all your other income plus 1/2 your social security reaches:

• Married Filing Jointly - $32,000
• Single or Head of Household - $25,000
• Married Filing Separately - 0

Look at your Form 1040 Line 6b for the amount of the SS benefits that are taxable.

You can view your Form 1040 plus Schedules 1, 2 and 3 at any time using the online editions. Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the online program screen. Click on Tools. Click on View Tax Summary. Click on Preview my 1040 on the left side of the screen.
