Myth No.5 - The tax on Social Security benefits isn't enough to worry about. Modestly affluent seniors now pay tax on up to 85% of benefits. For example, an affluent senior has 85% of a $20,000 annual benefit taxed at a 25% marginal federal tax rate. The tax on benefits is $4,250 ($20,000 X .85 X .25).
The maximum taxable Social Security earnings amount was formerly $118,500, so the 2017 wage cap represents a 7.3% increase. This may seem excessive, given that the cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) given to current beneficiaries was just a paltry 0.3%. In fact, this is the largest one-year increase to the earnings limit in the program's history.
