Ask Terry Questions Trumps payroll tax plan

Trumps payroll tax plan

By Terry Savage on September 08, 2020 | Wild Card

How will this payroll tax reduction effect the Social Security system and the benefits we get every month ?

Terry Says

Well, this is supposed to be temporary — with all missed taxes being repaid by May. But that won’t happen. And that’s the reason that very few companies are participating in the plan to stop collecting the payroll tax. The chief actuary of SS says it will wipe out the SS old age fund in two years if we stop collecting taxes permanently now.
