Wage withholding taxes on income
Withholding tax on payments to foreign persons
Backup withholding on dividends and interest.

Income Tax Withholding tax on wages includes 3 different tax funds, Income Tax, Social Security Tax and Medicare Tax. Some municipalities may include state taxes. Income tax wage withholding is based on income earned and wages paid.

Social Security Tax Withholding is a social insurance tax program that is primarily funded through payroll taxes called Federal Insurance Contributions Act tax (FICA). Tax deposits are formally entrusted to the Federal Old-Age and Survivors Insurance Trust Fund, the Federal Disability Insurance Trust Fund, the Federal Hospital Insurance Trust Fund, or the Federal Supplementary Medical Insurance Trust Fund. Social Security tax withholding terminates when payments from one employer exceed the maximum wage base during the year. The amount of tax withheld is based on the amount of payment subject to tax.

Medicare Tax Withholding is the amount of taxes withheld by employers from your paycheck to help cover the cost of running the Medicare insurance program. Your employer is required to collect this tax from your paychecks and send it to the Internal Revenue Service quarterly. The IRS then puts it into a government trust fund.
