Just read Scott Burns - column saying that you have to pay income tax on social security if one half the ss benefit plus other income exceeds $25,000.
My guess is that more are paying income taxes than are not paying.
Especially on this board.
Doesn't seem to make sense to me that the Feds give you money and then you have to return it.
Hypothetical question: wife works and husband is drawing social security and pension. Is it better to file separately or jointly ?
Maybe the answer is "it depends", but thought I'd throw it out for discussion.
