Where does my supplemental security income and Tanf cash get entered on 1040A?

[LindaA · Accepted solution]

You do not need to report Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or public assistance (such as TANF) on your federal tax return. 

A few states use SSI for various tax calculations; TurboTax will let you know if your state does so during the state tax interview.

For more information, please see page 27 of IRS Pub 525, Taxable and Nontaxable Income.
