Social Security is financed by a 12.4 percent tax on wages up to the annual threshold, with half (6.2 percent) paid by workers and the other half paid by employers. This taxable wage base usually goes up each yearâit rose from $117,000 in 2014 to $118,500 in 2015.
If youâre old enough to collect Social Security benefits but still working, you might think you can wave goodbye to paying into the Social Security fund. Sorry, but thatâs not true. Those deductions still keep coming out of your paycheck, no matter what your age, either until you exceed that $127,200 wage base limit or until you quit.
