Best Answer

I suspect you mean wages subject to the FICA contribution/payment. (The payment is generally NOT deductible in determining taxable income). The maximum amount of wages subject to the social security tax for 2007 is $97,500. There is no limit on the amount of wages subject to the Medicare tax. === === The maximum amount of wages subject to the social security tax for 2008 is $102,000. There is no limit on the amount of wages subject to the Medicare tax. 2009 The maximum amount is $106,800, no limit to the medicare tax. Remember. the wage to be taxed is determined using different definitions of income than in other things (like income subject to income tax).
