Social Security Retirement Check

I work full time but I started to receive Social Security Retirement Check in December 2020 Where do I put that on my tax form 1040 to include it with my 2020 tax. Also never received a 1099 from SSI Thank you

Understand that if you are receiving Social Security that is not "SSI" ---- there is a lot of confusion and use of the wrong term to refer to Social Security benefits.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFITS AND SSI?

https://www.ssa.gov/ssi/text-over-ussi.htm

If you are receiving Social Security benefits you should have a SSA1099.

There is a way to go on the Social Security website and request one. Go to www.ssa.gov You have to create an account with a user name and password.

Go to Federal> Wages & Income>>Retirement Plans and Social Security (SSA1099 and 1099RRB) to enter your SSA1099.

Sorry for the confusion - I got the retirement check for only one month as I was able to get it when I turned 65 I went to my social security account and there is no 1099 under the documents. So if I work full time and only got one month of retirement check do I claim it on my taxes. Again no 1099 on website Thank you so much
