Proc. 2025-32), the 2026 Social Security wage base (SSA) and Arkansas rates as of January 1, 2026 (Tax Foundation).

Tax Foundation notes these rates apply to net income above $92,300 (TY2025); a separate lower-income table and a bracket adjustment for some incomes are not modeled. Tax Foundation shows 2025 bracket widths. No credits, 401(k) or benefits included.
