How Does the Maine Paycheck Tax Calculator Work?

In Maine, similar to all other states, a portion of your earnings is subject to withholding for FICA taxes. These taxes are crucial, as they contribute towards the Social Security Tax and Medicare systems, enabling you to access their benefits during your retirement. During every pay period, your employer will deduct 6.2% of your earnings for Social Security taxes and 1.45% for Medicare taxes. Additionally, your employer will match this withholding amount. However, if you are self-employed, you must withhold twice as much from each of your paychecks.

Furthermore, you may owe the Additional Medicare Tax, a 0.9% surcharge applied to certain types of income. If your filing status is single, head of household, or qualifying widow(er), any earnings exceeding $200,000 will be subject to this 0.9% surtax without any matching contribution from your employer.
