SECA TAX
Self Employed Contributions Act Tax (SECA Tax) is a tax required to be paid by self-employed business owners with their net earnings as the basis of the tax. The Self Employed Contributions Act Tax (SECA Tax) was imposed by the SEC Act 1954. SECA Tax is very similar to Federal Insurance Contributions Act Tax (FICA Tax) which is required to be paid by employees. The tax usually goes toward funding Social Security, Medicare programs, and Old Age Survivors and Disability Insurance (OASDI).
