How do i check if i paid FICA taxes last year?

FICA is the combination of Social Security and Medicare that is withheld from your paycheck.  Did your employer withhold SS and Medicare from your wages?  Were you a W-2 employee?

 

If you were self employed you should have paid self-employment tax for SS and Medicare--about 15.3%, since when you work as an independent contractor, the SS and Medicare are not withheld from your wages by an employer.

If you had self employment income and a Net Profit on Schedule C the FICA tax would be the self employment SE tax on 1040 line 57 for 2017.  

 

For 2018 It is on the 1040 Schedule 4 line 57 which goes to 1040 line 14.
