If TurboTax is saying that you need to prepare Form 8959, Additional Medicare Tax, then it may be that something was entered in TurboTax that indicated a need for that form.
- You should file Form 8959 if your Medicare or RRTA wages exceed $200,000 for single filers or $250,000 for joint filers.
- You should file Form 8959 if your self-employment earnings plus wages or RRTA income exceed the threshold amount for a particular filing status as shown on Form 8959.
Double-check your entries for W-2 wages, particularly the entry for Box 5, Medicare wages.
