For Married Filing Jointly (MFJ), the Medicare
tax is 1.45% up to $250k income and then after that it adds another 0.9%.
Speaking with our payroll company, they said I am taxed as a "single"
where it is 1.45% up to $200k and then an additional 0.9% thereafter. Our
payroll company says all payrolls are taxed this way for medicare regardless of
what is claimed on the W4 or the filing status, and they cannot adjust or
correct it, it is up to the filer during the filing process. The $50k
difference is $450, if I file MFJ, but I am taxed as a Single. Does
Turbotax provide a correction for this when I file my taxes, or is there a way
this is corrected during my filing?
