Depends.....if you are ~retirement age and get SS income, then that is where the SSA-1099 $$ are entered...so in that situation it is required....and needs $$ entered in it.   Deleting it would remove your SS income.

_____

If you did not receive any SS income during 2022, then it could probably/maybe be removed...but I'm not certain about that...or what the effect would be, if any.

you have to calculate the taxable part of your Social Security.

That's one reason why most people use tax software.
