At $ 36,000 a year from Social Security , none of your benefits would be taxable.

At $ 42,000 in combined income for a single filer, up to 85% of Social Security benefits are taxable.

You may be able to manage this by using Roth accounts, getting income from non-taxable sources or reducing your income by working less or taking smaller withdrawals.

Social Security is a critical part of many retirees’ income plans.
