Do I have to claim all my SSA1099 income

Yes, if you are filing a return you must enter all your income.  The IRS gets copies of those forms & could contact you about the difference in the amount.

Do I have to claim all my SSA1099 income

Yes you do.   You enter the SSA1099 exactly as it appears.  If you are worried about how much is taxable---the software calculates that for you.  Look on lines 5a and 5b of your Form 1040 to see how much was taxable after all of your other income is entered.

 

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

TAX ON SOCIAL SECURITY

Up to 85% of your Social Security benefits can be taxable on your federal tax return.  There is no age limit for having to pay taxes on Social Security benefits if you have other sources of income along with the SS benefits.  When you have other income such as earnings from continuing to work, investment income, pensions, etc. up to 85% of your SS can be taxable.

 What confuses people about this is that before you reach full retirement age, if you continue working while drawing SS, your benefits can be reduced if you earn over a certain limit. (For 2017 that limit is $16,920 —for 2018 it will be $17,040—for 2019 it will be $17,640)  After full retirement age, no matter how much you continue to earn, your benefits are not reduced by your earnings; your employer will still have to withhold for Social Security and Medicare.

To see how much of your Social Security was taxable, look at lines 5a and 5b of your Form 1040

Do I have to claim all my SSA1099 income

If you ONLY get SSI or Social Security or Social Security Disability or a SSA-1099 or RRB-1099 for railroad retirement you do not have to file a return. And there is no benefit to itemizing deductions or claiming dependents.

 

Up to 85% of Social Security 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

To Add:  If SS is the only income, you do not have to file a return.  

 

The stimulus package states that anyone on Social Security or Disability, who did not file a return, the IRS will use the information from SSA.
