Your employer has to subtract Social Security and Medicare tax from bonuses and other wages. The Social Security tax rate is 10.4 percent in 2012: employers pay 6.2 percent and employees pay 4.2 percent. Social security tax applies to the first $110,100 of income you earn, so if you make more than $110,100 in normal wages, your bonuses aren't subject to Social Security tax. Employers and employees each pay a tax rate of 1.45 percent for Medicare; there is no income limit for Medicare taxes.
