Can you you file taxes if you are on ssi?

Yes, you can file taxes while receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI). However, SSI benefits are not considered taxable income, so you typically won't owe any federal income tax on them. If you have other sources of income or if your total income exceeds certain thresholds, you may still need to file a tax return. It's advisable to consult a tax professional or use tax software to determine your specific filing requirements.
