Myself,sister and a friend used turbo and all got notified that we owed addn’ taxes because SS income was not included on our 2024 return.Hard to believe we all errored.

I know 3 people were notified Social Security income wasn’t included in 2024 return. Has this problem been corrected?

Did all of you forget to enter your SSA1099 that was mailed to you by Social Security in January?   Or....did you actually enter the SS benefits but make a mistake after entering it?   The screen after you enter your SSA1099 asks if you had income in a foreign country in 2024--if you skipped that screen or answered it incorrectly, that messed up the taxability of your SS.

Social Security is on 1040 line  6a and any taxable amount on 6b.  You get 0 on 6b if you didn't answer the Foreign question right. Or if the amount on 6b is too low and you are married you answered it wrong for one spouse.   When did you file?  If it was early there may have been an update later to fix that.  

 

Or the IRS changed some other income on your return. Like the taxable amount of a 1099R you got or you missed entering some income. Like if a 1099R got entered on the wrong line 1040 line 4 or 5, the IRS would miss it and think you didn’t report it. By increasing your other income it made more of your SS taxable.

I can attest that TT reported my taxable social security income correctly on my 1040SR.  I e-filed my tax returns on March 10, 2025.
