    without understanding your total income picture that is hard to determine in this forum

     

    how much will you earn working 30 hours per week over the course of the year? 

    How much is your SS benefit (and that is BEFORE the deduction for Medicare) for the year?

    What other income to you expect to earn? 401k distribution? IRA distribution? 

    Are you filing joint or single? 

    What was your 'full retirement date' for social security (the income earned prior to that date MAY HAVE a different impact than the income earned after that date).
