Yes. However, it is subject to a very complicated formula that takes into account what your total income is and takes into account certain non-taxable income such as municipal bond interest. And the whole amount of your Social Security payment is not taxable. A maximum of 85% of your payment is taxable. (Don't misunderstand this statement, the tax rate is NOT 85%.)
