Is social security paid in the same year or next year?

Social security is paid in the current year.

Social security is calculated and paid according to the proportion of wages and contributions in the current year. According to China's Social Insurance Law, employees and employers need to calculate and pay social security fees according to the total wages of the year and the proportion of social security contributions. The specific payment ratio and standard shall be formulated by the state and local governments and adjusted at the beginning of each year. Therefore, social security is paid according to the salary and contribution ratio of the year.
