For Married filing jointly (both over 65):
$31500
3200 2 x 1600
12000 2 x 6000 Phases out starting at $150k MAGI
-------
$46700
This seems unbelievably high.

Is the $6000 per person the same as "no tax on social security?"

The other $1600 per person is what exactly?

No. The Big Beautiful Bill added the $6,000 extra deduction for seniors, but the taxation of Social Security benefits remains the same.
