From your social security benefit amount you will have to determine the amount that you would want the social security administration to withhold for income taxes before they issue your net SSB check amount.

Go to the IRS gov website and use the search box for W-4V Voluntary Withholding Request and choose the percentage amount that you would want them to withhold from your gross benefit amount and get it to the SSA office.

You NEVER do have any deductions for federal taxes or other items from your net take home paycheck when it is issued to you. The net amount that is on the paycheck that you have in your hand is your net pay for the pay period after all of the federal taxes and other necessary withholding amounts have been withheld from your gross earnings by your employer payroll department.

You should get the information from your employer payroll department if you really need to know the correct numbers or amount that should be deducted from your gross earnings not from your paycheck.
