Social Security Income Cap 2025 Update

Social Security Income Cap 2025 Update. In 2025, the social security income limit is $23,400 (up from $22,320 in 2024) if you are under full retirement age for the entire year. You'll have $1 in social security withheld for every $2 you earn above that.

The increase in 2025 will perhaps have the biggest impact on those earning between $168,600 and $176,100 per year, as you’ll face social security tax on income that. This amount is also commonly referred to as the taxable maximum.
