Your employer will stop taking FICA (Federal Insurance Contributions Act) taxes out of your paycheck once you reach the wage limit set for Social Security, which is adjusted annually. For 2023, this limit is $160,200. However, Medicare tax continues to be deducted from your paycheck regardless of your earnings, as there is no income cap for Medicare contributions. If you are self-employed, you are responsible for both the employee and employer portions of FICA.
FICA tax or Social Security taxes are withheld from taxes at the rate of 6.2% of your gross income until your income reaches $113,700 for the tax year. You only pay this tax on the first $113700 of income for the year. Your medicare tax rate of 1.45% will be applied to all income your earned for the year, and it doesn't have a cap limit.

There is no age at which you stop paying taxes on Social Security benefits. However, the amount you pay in taxes on your benefits may vary depending on your total income and filing status.
You have to file a consent order to terminate the income deduction order.
