my bad the sentence in the first paragraph should read "Although in my case the office audit only involved a single issue, it was not a full blown examination of my 1040.
Folks…I am NOT asking about replying the $2020. My question is about AGAIN paying taxes on that $2020 for 2017.
If I have to repay the $2020, I will.
But that is NOT the question I’m asking here!
Maybe I’m misunderstanding but if you include the number in box 5 of SSA 1099 on your 1040 which includes the $2020, turbo tax, unless your SS income is considered untaxable income (box 20a), will add your SS income (box 20b) to your AGI. Whether you pay taxes on $2020 will depend on rest of your return.
