Eight states tax Social Security benefits; 42 don't

Your state of residence determines whether Social Security income faces state taxation.

What to know

  • Eight states currently tax Social Security benefits while 42 states do not, creating significant geographic variation in retirement income.
  • State of residence is the determining factor in whether retirees pay taxes on their Social Security income.
  • The disparity means beneficiaries in non-taxing states retain more of their Social Security payments than those in taxing states.
