Dutch term or phrase: SV-loon

What is this exactly? Is it the amount of wages which are subject to social security wages? Is it the amount of 'wages' which are received as a social security benefit?

English translation:taxable income (or see below)

Explanation:
Basically, payment of social security premiums (in the Netherlands) is based on the 'SV-loon' with SV standing for 'sociale verzekeringen'. It appears that the former distinction between 'SV-loon' and 'fiscaal loon' has disappeared since 01/2006. So depending on your context, you could use either 'taxable income' or 'income subject to deduction of social security premiums' :-) See als the links below.

Sv-loon (sv = sociale verzekeringen), ook wel coördinatieloon of premieloon, is het loon waarover de premies op grond van de sociale verzekeringen worden berekend en waarop de uitkeringen worden gebaseerd.

Op 1 januari 2005 is het SV-loon op enkele uitzonderingen na gelijkgesteld aan het fiscaal loon (loon voor loonheffing en premies volksverzekeringen). Op 1 januari 2006 is ook het dagloon (loon waarop de uitkering gebaseerd wordt) aan de andere twee loonbegrippen gelijkgesteld.

Explanation:
Google for sv-loon:
Wat is het SV-loon?
Het SV-loon of premieloon is het loon dat geldt voor de berekening van de werknemersverzekeringen (WAO, WIA, WW, ZW).
Op 1 januari 2005 is het SV-loon op enkele uitzonderingen na gelijkgesteld aan het fiscaal loon (loon voor loonheffing en premies volksverzekeringen). Op 1 januari 2006 is ook het dagloon (loon waarop de uitkering gebaseerd wordt) aan de andere twee loonbegrippen gelijkgesteld.
So since sv-loon equals (in amount) "fiscaal loon" (=gross salary), I would translate it as such unless the document purpose requires further explanation.

social security wage base (UK, abbr. SSWB), social security salary base

Explanation:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Security_Wage_Base
For the Old Age, Survivors and Disability Insurance (OASDI) tax or Social Security tax, the ** Social Security Wage Base (SSWB) ** is the maximum earned gross income or upper threshold on which a wage earner's Social Security tax may be imposed.

http://www.washington.edu/admin/hr/benefits/saving/pretax-tr...
Savings in Social Security taxes will result in a reduction in the amount of your ** Social Security salary base **.

http://www.fuzeqna.com/pebb/consumer/kbdetail.asp?kbid=301
The Section 125 deduction reduces your ** social security salary base ** (if your base is under the $98,400 maximum) so you are saving money now, by not fully paying social security taxes.

Sorry, on further consideration both terms seem to US-related.
