It seems Pathfinder 2e Society is capped at 8th level since I haven't seen anything higher so far.

There were statements back near launch, that they hoped to be able to go higher than PFS1 went, don't think they committed to any given number. But I wouldn't expect the scenario level cap to grow by more than 2 per year. It just takes that long to build up the pyramid of scenarios required to support enough characters at high enough levels to warrant the scenarios.
I was just doing some convention planning, and it feels like we're a little light on 3-6s and non-metaplot 1-4s right now, and a little top-heavy on 5-8s. Which does make it feel like the first 7-10 could be "soon" (tm).
I'll probably make an effort to push one of my level 6s to level 7 to be ready soon. I had been spreading out exp around (play and GM credit) around six different level 6s to keep them all in the 3-6 and 5-8 overlap for maximum options at muster time.

Honestly I hope it gets better than +2 lvl / year, because otherwise you may be stuck and prevented from playing your favourite character for too long for most players I know.
I think in PFS 1 it was more along +4 lvls : year ? Anyways, I would compromise for three.
Some people do not have the same commitment as long time players, or else have life issues causing them to stop gaming on the way, so +2 lvls / year seems a problem, IMHO.

PFS 1 went all the way to 7-11s in season 0 (which was later described as a mistake) Other than the special level 12 retirement arc PFS1 did not have any scenarios above level 11 until 7 years later.
With 0 inside information I bet the season 2 finale will be the first 7-10.

I wouldn't be shocked if the season ender is a combination of multitable special for lower levels, and a single-table high level scenario showing what the elite agents were doing to deal with the problem from a separate angle. Comparable to Cornered Rat/The Last Bite.
Like Eric says, it's likely that level ranges will follow a pyramid shape, because there's just a lot of demand at the bottom.
However, I do think we'll see relatively swift growth, at least compared to PF1; notice how every AP so far goes to level 20 and people are reporting that the game works well at higher levels. PF1 held back on high level scenarios for a long time because they were so hard to write, but PF2 is more stable at higher levels.
