Under the baseline tax system, all compensation, including dedicated and deferred payments, should be included in taxable income. In contrast, the Social Security Equivalent Benefit paid to railroad retirees and the disabled is not generally subject to the income tax unless the recipient’s modified gross income reaches a certain threshold under current law. See provision number 161, Social Security benefits for retired and disabled workers and spouses, dependents, and survivors, for a discussion of the threshold.
