There is no other way to enter the Medicare tax other than the w-2 or calculated in self-employment.
- Was the bonus included in the W-2? If so, the Medicare payment should also be.
- Where you issued a 1099-MISC for the bonus. If so, it should have been entered as self-employment and the Medicare would be calculated separately.
- I'm not sure why your employer had you pay out of pocket, and did the employer pay his half?
I'm sorry! I'm giving you more questions than answers, but I don't understand the circumstance.
