paying tax on social security benefits
i got disability benefits back in 1990. i've always paid tax on it because of hubby's income. hubby is gone now and i have a decent income so i still pay on 85% of my benefits.
does anyone know if the amount earned has changed over the years? i thought it was much higher than it is now.
now it's if you are single and earn more than $32,000 or $44,000 filing jointly. i thought those amounts were higher in the past.
