Social Security earnings limit

0

Q. I am looking at cashing in my stocks. Would this affect my earning amount for the year if I exceed the $15,700?

A. No, it wouldn’t. That’s because the Social Security limit only applies to earnings from wages or self-employment, not to other sources of income.
