SSA
Social Security Administration - SSA.Gov
The end of tax season is fast approaching. This year the tax return filing deadline, or Tax Day, falls on April 18, 2023. If you received Social Security benefits, you should have received an annual Benefit Statement, also known as the SSA-1099 or the SSA-1042S. A Benefit Statement shows the total amount of benefits an individual received from Social Security in the previous year, so they know how much Social Security income to report to the IRS on their tax return.
If you misplaced your Benefit Statement, you can instantly get a replacement form with a personal my Social Security account.
