My husband and I live abroad with foreign income earned. We do not owe any federal taxes, but were eligible for student loan tax deduction. Will we receive money back?

No, if you do not owe taxes, the federal student loan deduction would not make any difference. This deduction simply reduces your taxable income, thereby reducing your tax. If you already do not owe any tax, there is nothing to reduce.

I'm receiving SS but did not reach full retirement age this year. I earned more than 15k on Royalties. I had production tax deductible expenses for the royalties. Will SS calculate what I owe based on the full amount or the amount after deductions?
