What is the max social security withholding for self employed per year?

You do not have anyone withholding social security and medicare taxes from a self employed taxpayer income. If you are a self employed taxpayer then you are responsible for all of your own FICA self employment taxes of 15.3% plus any income taxes on your net profit from your business operation at your marginal tax rate. Your first 106800 maximum amount of net profit from the business operation will be subject to the social security tax and your maximum social security payment amount would be 6621.60 All of your net profit from your business operation will be subject to the Medicare tax of 2.90% with no cap.

What is the 2011 maximum social security withholding amount?

For 2009, the Social Security Withholding tax (OASDI) is 6.20% on wages up to $106,800. Doing the math the maximum social security withholding is $6,621.60. If you have more than one employer in 2009 and your combined earnings exceed $106,800 the combined withholding can exceed $6,621.60 as EACH employer is required to deduct 6.20% of earnings up to $106,800. You will get back any amount over $6,621.60 when you file your taxes as excess social security taxes, or your employer will stop withholding any amounts above $6,621.60 from your paycheck. There is an additional 1.45% for Medicare which has no cap on the amount of withholding. The combined OASDI and Medicare tax of 7.65% is commonly referred to as the Social Security Withholding tax.

What tax withholdings are included in FICA deduction?

Social Security withholding is 6.2% and Medicare withholding is 1.45%. These two are added together (7.65%) and referred to as FICA. These amounts are matched by the employer, so a total of 15.3% of every dollar earned is paid to the IRS for FICA. The Social Security is capped at a maximum wage of $97, 500 (for 2007. The max increases every year). After the max wage is earned, no SS is withheld. Up until recently, Medicare was capped at the same amount and remitted on the same tax form (Form 941); therefore, these two taxes were usually added together and called FICA on a paystub. Now however, there is no cap on the medicare portion, so most paystubs will split out SS and Medicare

When do you max out paying your withholding tax?

None, of course. Just like there is maximum amount of tax you can pay - based on their is no maximum amount of income you can earn....all withholding is how you pay the tax in installments when an mployee...if you weren't an employee, but self employed...you would have to make estimated tax payments at least quarterly...and there is no max on that either.


You have already paid the social security max of 6621 for 2010 bu July 1 2010 if you switch employers will they also withhold the employ portion of social security again?
