As I was filing out the form, TurboTax prompted me with a new additional medicare tax (over $2000) and net investment income tax (over $1900). Are these extra taxes expected for Washington state? I was fully covered by a high-deductible health plan all year 2024.  I don't remember having these extra taxes last year.
