In most cases, social security is not taxable so there is no reason to withhold taxes on your social security check.
If you are working another job and collecting social security at the same time, it is possible to earn enough money that a portion of your social security will become taxable. If that happens, you may want to consider withholding some tax from your social security but in most cases it is not necessary.
Taxes are withheld only upon request. Contact the Social Security Administration if you want taxes withheld.
Remember that withholding has nothing to do with whether you need to pay taxes. At the end of the year, you'll need to fill out Form 1040 to determine whether you owe any taxes and either pay at that time or get a refund if you had too much withheld.
Social Security doesn't withhold taxes from your benefit check unless you fill out a form specifically requesting them to, because many recipients don't owe taxes on their benefits.
If Social Security is your only source of income and you receive less than $25,000 per year for a single person, or $32,000 for a couple filing jointly, your federal tax burden is 0%. If you believe you will owe taxes and want them withheld from your check, fill out Form W-4V, Voluntary Withholding Request, available as a download on the Social Security website (see links).
Income TAXES will NOT be automatically withheld from your social security benefits.
For this to happen you will have to fill out a Withholding Request W-4V Form from the Department of the Treasury Internal Revenue Service ? Give this form to your payer. Do not send it to the IRS.

You do NOT have any amount that is withheld from your net take home paycheck after it is issued to you. The amount that is withheld is calculated on your gross earnings for the pay period and is a advance payment of your possible future income tax liability. After your income tax return is completed correctly and IF the amount that is withheld is more than your federal or state income liability then you will receive a refund of the over withheld amount.
