Social Security benefits in Nebraska

Varies

Is Social Security Taxed in Nebraska?

Short answer: No. Since tax year 2024, Nebraska excludes all Social Security benefits included in federal AGI, at any income level. LB 754 (2023) moved the full exclusion up from 2025 to 2024.

Federally, up to 85% of benefits can be taxable depending on your combined income (IRS Pub 915); that part doesn't change by state.

Records to keep: Keep your state return, W-2s and 1099s (1099-R, SSA-1099), and any state credit worksheets. Check your state revenue department's current-year instructions before you file.
