Does a married couple have to file joint taxes if one is on Social Security and the other is on Disability?
It is possible for some of the social security benefits to become taxable on any individuals income tax return. Your question about the other being on Disability is not clear because it does not specify what kind. How much, if any, of your social security benefits are taxable depends on your total income and marital status. Generally, if social security benefits were your only income for 2009, your benefits are not taxable and you probably do not need to file a federal income tax return. If you received income from other sources, your benefits will not be taxed unless your modified adjusted gross income is more than the base amount for your filing status. Your taxable benefits and modified adjusted gross income are figured in a worksheet in the Form 1040A or Form 1040 Instruction booklet.

Stimulus Rebate no file or late file tax return?
IRS has issued a special reminder to an estimated 4.3 million retirees and disable veterans not to let filing for a stimulus payment to pass them by. These individuals may be eligible to receive an economic stimulus payment but are among those who normally do not file a tax return. The agency said it has accounted for 80% of the Social Security and Veterans Affairs beneficiaries initially identified as potentially eligible to receive a stimulus payment. There still remain an estimated 4.2 million people who receive certain Social Security benefits and 178,000 who receive certain Veterans Affairs benefits, IRS said. As explained by IRS, people who have no tax liability and who have no requirement to file a tax return because their income is too low or non-taxable must have at least $3,000 in qualifying income in order to receive a stimulus payment. The qualifying income includes earned income, non-taxable combat pay, and certain benefits from Social Security, Veterans Affairs and Railroad Retirement. Qualifying income from Social Security includes retirement, disability and survivor benefits. Qualifying income from Veterans Affairs includes disability compensation, disability pension and survivor benefits. Qualifying Railroad Retirement Board benefits include the Social Security equivalent portion of Tier 1 benefits. Oct. 15 is also the filing deadline for some 10 million individuals who previously received extensions to file their 2007 income tax return.
