This state has a personal income tax but fully exempts Social Security benefits, so your benefits are not taxed at the state level. Mississippi exempts qualified retirement income, including Social Security.
Note: this covers state tax only. The federal government may tax up to 85% of your benefits depending on your combined income, regardless of where you live.
