From the employer to the employee no difference gross pay earnings and social security wages earnings would be the same thing.
Your Social Security benefits are calculated based on your earnings over your working years. The Social Security Administration uses a formula that takes into account your highest 35 years of earnings, adjusts them for inflation, and then calculates your average monthly earnings. This average is used to determine your monthly benefit amount when you become eligible to receive Social Security benefits.
Your employer does that and they deduct automatically.
In 2016, the maximum taxable earnings for Social Security tax was $118,500. Any earnings above this threshold were not subject to Social Security taxes.
Social Security benefits are the same no matter what state you live in. Social Security retirement benefits are based on your earnings record or "credits" and your age.
Presumably the question is about U.S. Social Security taxes. Social Security taxes (commonly referred to as FICA taxes) are taken out of your earnings each time you receive a paycheck. This rule applies even if the employee is already receiving Social Security benefits. However, by continuing to work, future Social Security benefits may be increased to take into account the additional earnings.
