Medicare Payroll Tax Deduction
Permalink   


I looked at my paystub for 1/4/13 and it looks like they're taking out too much for medicare. I believe the tax rate is 1.45%, but it looks like they took out closer to 6%. I looked at my paystubs for 2012 and they took out only 1.45%.

I am aware that Social Security payroll taxes have increased from 4.2% to 6.2%, but I'm taking exclusively about Medicare taxes.

Anyone else encounter this?

Nope. My Medicare tax went down. Only thing that went up is federal.

Yes my Medicare went up by a couple of dollars, but my federal income tax and the social security went up $17.00 a piece.

 You should contact your union and complain.

Federal went down slightly from 9.8% to 7.9%.
Medicare stayed the same at 1.4% for both.
SS went up from 4.1% to 6%

I claim 0 and was comparing my last check(12/27/12) to the one i just received(1/3/13).
