Pension tax rules explained for Las Vegas readers
A reader asks how pensions and annuities are taxed federally. The answer outlines three classes: non taxable, fully taxable, or partly taxable. Tax-free pensions include Social Security, Railroad Retirement, veterans benefits, and some military disability pay. Fully taxable pensions come from employer plans with no cost to the employee, while partially taxable payments arise from annuities or jointly funded plans with a recovery formula.
