Connecticut

Connecticut’s Social Security income tax might range from 3% to 6.99%. It all depends on the AGI and filing status, as retirees have the option to deduct the majority of their benefit income.

To be more specific, beneficiaries won’t have to pay state taxes on their benefits, as long as their AGI is less than $75,000 (for single filers), and $100,000 (for those who are married and filed jointly). Above the thresholds mentioned above, 75% of Social Security payments are completely tax-exempt.

Kansas

In Kansas, there’s no difference between Social Security benefits and other forms of income, so they’re all taxed the same, and the tax rate ranges from 3.1% to 5.7%. Even so, retirees with an AGI of more than $75,000 are exempt from paying state taxes on their Social Security income, no matter their filing status.

    We moved from Massachusetts to North Carolina about 20 years ago. NC taxed my husbands pension. I had been on disability in MA, I lost it when I moved to NC. I now live in PA and pension is not taxed but I never got my disability back. We lost a lot of money. NO state should tax someone’s pension or SS or disability.
