True

The text states that there is no tax on Social Security benefits.

Infact verdict: True (91/100).

The claim that there is no tax on Social Security benefits is currently accurate due to the 2025 Tax Act, which temporarily exempts these benefits from taxation. This is corroborated by multiple sources, including an official statement from the White House. Historically, Social Security benefits have been subject to taxation since 1984, but the recent legislation has changed this temporarily. Therefore, the claim is true as of now, but it is important to note that this exemption is not permanent.
