Abstract:
|
By combining individual tax returns (Form 1040) and information returns (e.g., Forms W-2 and 1099-SSA) in one database, the Statistics of Income (SOI) Division has made it possible to study trends in social security tax payments, social security benefits, and the taxation of those benefits. In this paper, we will show the impact of the social security system on individuals in various income classes and those in different age and gender groups. For tax return filers, benefits and taxes can be classified by the total adjusted gross income of the filing unit. For nonfilers, classification by total income reported on all types of information documents filed for the individual is possible.
