6k Social Security Tax Credit

Your saying trust Turbo Tax.  Looked today (1/23/2026).  Still a no show?  By the numbers posted on my account by turbo tax (how we got here) does show anything automatically added. 

 

Would not just be easier just show the as a deduction credit?

Or 

Is the form still not ready?

Have put in car purchase interest deduction shows ready and then review?

Assume (we know what that means) it appears credited?

Guess, I have a trust issue.

6k Social Security Tax Credit

@mlscott2 

 

The extra $6000 (single) , 12,000 (MFJ) for those age 65 & Older.....that shows up on a separate line on the form 1040.   (both must be age 65+ for the 12k when MFJ)

 

It's a deduction from income, and not a credit.

 

And it shows up on an entirely separate line 13b..... from the Std Ded (line 12e) on the 1040 form.

 

But it does phase-out for those with AGI greater than 75,000 Single/150,000 MFJ,

((.....and no 6k allowed if MFS))
