NOTE: Where SEI is reported on a fiscal year basis, the maximum SEI taxable is the maximum
for the year in which the fiscal year begins.
*The law provides credit against SE tax liability for the following years equal to:
1984 - 2.7% of SE income (total effective rate 11.3%)
1985 - 2.3% of SE income (total effective rate 11.8%)
1986 - 2.0% of SE income (total effective rate 12.3%)
1987 - 2.0% of SE income (total effective rate 12.3%)
1988 - 2.0% of SE income (total effective rate 13.02%)
1989 - 2.0% of SE income (total effective rate 13.02%)
NOTE: Effective with tax year 1990 the SECA tax rate is 15.3% (no credit applies but half
of the self-employment tax is allowed to be taken as an income tax deduction). Further
when computing NESE a 7.65% deduction is required. The purpose of this deduction is
an attempt to achieve parity between an employee who's employer pays 7.65% of the
FICA tax on their behalf and the self-employed person who is responsible for payment
of their own SECA taxes.
