I should have said 22K SS - then not taxable

OK my bad. Amount of the Deduction: In the Senate version of the bill, the deduction is $6,000 for individuals aged 64 and older, and $12,000 for couples.

So if you (joint) have 30K income, and up to 24K SS, you should pay no taxes

"I should have said 22K SS - then not taxable"

I made $31,600 on social security last year. My pension is about the same. I have no other income. Does that mean that $22,000 of the 31,600 is not taxable?
