There is an additional Medicare tax of 0.9% if single income exceeds 200k, but if you file jointly, that limit is 250k. So a married couple with each earning 125k+ would pay more tax than an unmarried couple where person made 200k. This hardly mattered years ago, but with median wages getting around 70k+, a lot more people pay this penalty for getting married. |
