In El Salvador, social security deductions made by employees are generally not deductible for the purpose of calculating taxable income. This means that when individuals compute their income tax, the contributions towards social security are not subtracted from their gross salary. Instead, these contributions are considered a separate obligation, with the taxable income calculation based primarily on gross earnings before any social security deductions are applied.
