Social Security income is taxed, and how much of it is taxed depends on your tax filing status and your other income.
If you’re single, you would be subject to the following tax thresholds: - If your combined income is less than $25,000 , none of your Social Security benefits are taxed.
In your case, assuming that your RMDs are the only income you have aside from Social Security , there are two main strategies that I would consider: Accelerate IRA income.
