Is there a cap on how much income needs to be reported when having soc. sec. income? Most especially for 2017 tax year?

Used turbo tax for 2017 taxes. Thought I did not have to report soc. sec. income. 

What is cap on earnings including soc. sec. income?  For 2017 taxes.

You will report Social Security on the tax return and depending on how much other income you have determines how much is taxable to you.

I think you are getting mixed up how much you can earn when collecting Social Security and not at full retirement age, which is $17,040  for 2018.
