    H1B로 일하면서 처음 W-2를 받았는데요. 학생때 받은 것과는 달리 wages외에 social security와 medical wages가 있는데 이들은 무엇인가요? 이들 금액도 조금씩 다른데요. AIG, 즉 income을 말할때 이둘 말고 wages만 말하는 겁니까? 그러면 이 둘은 무슨 용도인가요?

    1040EZ를 작성할때 social security wages 와 medical wages, 그리고 social security tax와 medicare tax는 계산에 사용되지 않는거 맞나요? 오늘 작성해보면서 이들을 쓸때가 없는거 같아서요.

    답변주신 분께 미리 감사합니다.

      You pay 6.25 % (?) of social security tax and 1.25% (?) of medicare tax because you’re not a student anymore, but a normal salaried employee. They will be used when you’re retired.
      Your 1040 is based on the amont in the box 2 (?) in your W2. It’s named “Wages and income (?).” It is an income after ss tax, medicare tax, and 401K contribution, etc.

      It is an income after ss tax, medicare tax, and 401K contribution, etc. – I like to clarify the term.

      Wage in box 2 comes from (Gross wage (Your yearly salary) – 401k contribution – FSA (or 129 plan or flexible spending) = taxable wage in box 2.
