 2010 OASDI Maximum remains $106,800

Social Security's Old-Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance (OASDI) program limits the amount of earnings subject to taxation for a given year. The same annual limit also applies when those earnings are used in a benefit computation [such as relocation].  For earnings in 2010, this base is $106,800.
