Taxes under the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) are composed of the old-age, survivors, and disability insurance taxes, also known as social security taxes, and the hospital insurance tax, also known as Medicare taxes. Different rates apply for these taxes. The amount an employee pays in FICA tax is capped at the Benefit and Contribution Base which can change from year to year according to the Average Wage Index (AWI). The data set returned will contain the actual values for years that the government listed at the time this package was built. For any year beyond that, an estimate is returned.
