What is the highest amount of income eligible for Social Security withholding?

For the year 2010, When you have one employer the amount of FICA (OASDI) Old Age Survivor and Disability Insurance) for your social security would stop once your wages with the withheld social security amount reach 106800 and social security amount withheld would be 6621.60. You do NOT have any cap LIMIT on the MEDICARE insurance contribution amount so the 1.45% amount will continue to be withheld on your earnings over the above limit and will be matched by your employer at the 1.45% amount for a total 3.90% of all of your earned income for the year. If you have more than one employer and your combined wages reported on your W-2 are more than the 106800 amount and your withheld social security amount is more than the 6621.60 then you would get a tax credit for the amount that is over the 6621.60 on your federal income tax return when you file the 2010 tax return in the year 2011. For the individual taxpayer that is filing the 1040 federal income tax return does NOT get a deduction for the FICA (social security taxes) that are withheld from the taxpayers earnings for the year.

Will your social security change if you move to a different state?

No. Social Security is a federal benefit that varies primarily according to the amount you paid in FICA taxes, the number of years worked, and your age at retirement. The benefits are the same in all 50 states. Supplemental Security Income (SSI), a form of welfare for low-income disabled people and seniors 65 and older, is also funded by the Social Security trust, but some states supplement the federal payment, so the benefit received may vary depending on your state of residence.

Yes, you may have to pay income tax if your modified adjusted gross income is $25,000 or more for a single person, or $32,000 or more for a couple filing jointly. Social Security benefits are taxed at 0%, 50% or 85% (see below), depending on your total taxable income.If you are retired or disabled and Social Security benefits are your only source of income, you will need to file, but generally will not be taxed. If you received income from sources other than Social Security, your benefits will not be taxed unless your modified adjusted gross income is more than the base amount for your filing status.For a single taxpayer, If your total AGI is less than $25,000, you pay tax on 0% of your benefits.If your total AGI is $25-34,000, you pay tax on 50% of your benefitsIf your total AGI is above $34,000, you pay tax on 85% of your benefitsFor a married couple filing jointly, If the total AGI is less than $32,000, you pay tax on 0% of your benefits.If your total AGI is $32-$44,000, you pay tax on 50% of your benefitsIf your total AGI is above $44,000, you pay tax on 85% of your benefitsYou can do the following quick computation to determine whether some of your benefits may be taxable:First, add one-half of the total Social Security benefits you received to all your other income, including any tax exempt interest and other exclusions from income.Next, compare this total to the base amount for your filing status, if the total is more than your base amount, then 50% or 85% of your benefits may be taxable.
