If your provisional income is between $25,000 and $34,000 ($32,000 and $44,000 if married and filing a joint return) up to 50% of your benefits may be taxable. If your provisional income is more than $34,000 ($44,000 if married and filing jointly) up t 85% of your Social Security benefits may be taxable.
