Delaying Social Security can increase your monthly benefit… but it can also create a hidden problem: higher taxes and higher Medicare premiums.

In this video, we break down: • Why up to 85% of Social Security benefits can be taxable • How “combined income” determines whether your benefits are taxed • Why a bigger check can collide with RMDs and investment income and push you into a higher bracket • How IRMAA can increase Medicare premiums if you cross certain income thresholds • Planning strategies that may help reduce the impact—like coordinating withdrawals, partial Roth conversions, and tracking IRMAA thresholds

The goal isn’t just to maximize your Social Security check—it’s to maximize your after-tax retirement income.

If you want to take a more proactive approach to retirement income and taxes, we’ve created a Tax-Smart Retirement Workbook to help you think through the key decisions.
