If your total income is more than the base amount, you might owe some tax on your Social Security benefits. You can use the worksheet in the Form 1040 Instructions, or efile.com, to find out exactly how much of your Social Security income is taxable.
Since then, if the total of taxable pensions, wages, interest, dividends, and other taxable income, tax-exempt interest income, plus one-half of Social Security benefits (referred to collectively as âprovisional incomeâ) are more than $25,000 for singles and $32,000 for married couples filing jointly, up to 50% of Social Security benefits are taxed. If income exceeds $34,000 for singles and $44,000 for joint filers, up to 85% of benefits are taxed.
