The Social Security tax rate is assessed on all types of income earned by an employee including salaries, wages, and bonuses. However, there is an income limit to which the tax rate is applied. For 2017, the Social Security tax is taken from income up to an annual limit of $127,200. Any amount earned above $127,200 is Social Security tax-free.
To calculate income taxes, most taxpayers must calculate their adjusted gross income, which includes all income from wages, investments and other sources. Social Security recipients, on the other hand, must calculate their combined income, which includes adjusted gross income in addition to nontaxable interest and Social Security benefits. This combined income figure can be used to determine whether or not you will have to pay taxes on your benefits, and roughly how much of your benefits are taxable.
