Question: what is the earned income limit for social security in 2018?
Answer: If you'll be younger than full retirement age throughout 2018, then the Social Security income limit is $17,040. If you have more than $17,040 in earnings from work during the year, then you'll have to give back a portion of your benefits. The amount you'll forfeit is $1 for every $2 over the $17,040 threshold.
