Social Security taxable amount for 2025 is not showing up on my income. I have included the social security benefit but is does no include any taxable amount on income. This is a definite error.

[VolvoGirl]

The taxable amount depends on all your other income.  Have you entered all your income?  

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

Social Security Retirement/Disability/Survivors benefits are reported on a form SSA-1099 and the benefits received are to be entered on a federal tax return. The benefits may be taxable depending on the amount of other income you have entered on your tax return.

Up to 85% of Social Security Retirement/Disability/Survivors benefits 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

The benefits are shown on the federal tax return, Form 1040 Line 6a.  The taxable amount of the benefits, if any, are shown on Line 6b

Look at your Form 1040 -
