Will Additional Medicare Tax be withheld from an individual's wages?
Answer:
An employer must withhold Additional Medicare Tax from wages it pays to an individual in excess of $200,000 in a calendar year, without regard to the individual’s filing status or wages paid by another employer.
An individual may owe more than the amount withheld by the employer, depending on the individual’s filing status, wages, compensation, and self-employment income.
In that case, the individual should make estimated tax payments and/or request additional income tax withholding using Form W-4, Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate.
