Death Benefits

[qtothed]

I'm on Social Security my son died earlier this year and the Teamsters Union paid out a death benefit to me. It was taxed and I was inquiring is it possible to get that money that was paid in taxes refunded to me

Very sorry for your loss.     If tax was withheld from the benefit you received then you should receive a tax document of some sort--likely a 1099-- in late January/early February.   You can include that document and your SSA1099 on a tax return to seek a refund.   We cannot say whether you will receive all of it back---we have no information as to the amounts involved.

 Post back when you receive the tax documents if you need help with entering them.
