Question
Incorrect Medicare Calculation for Married Filing Jointly
My wife and I are filing jointly. She made over $200,000 and her employer correctly calculated the additional Medicare tax at 0.9% on her income above $200,000. I had two employers in 2025, so there was no additional Medicare tax calculated on my wages even though I also made above $200,000. However, in doing the joint filing calculation, online TurboTax is ignoring the additional tax that my wife already paid. It is saying that we owe the full 0.9% on everything we made over $250,000, even though my wife's employer already withheld some amount of additional Medicare for her earnings above $200,000. I have deleted and re-entered all of our W-2s and still can't get the calculation error corrected.
