What about Social Security? 

Since 1983, Social Security payments have been a constant subject of taxation by the federal government. Sure, just how much of an individual’s benefits might get taxed might vary, depending on their combined income, nontaxable interest, and also half of their Social Security benefits and filing status.

However, it’s worth noting that no matter how much it will show at the Internal Revenue Service calculation, the amount will never exceed 85% of the total benefit. Here’s a list of states that impose a tax on Social Security:

    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.
