Still 6.2% for both employer & employee.

Actually, that 6.2% is just for the social security tax portion of FICA. FICA consists of social security and medicare. The total FICA tax is 7.65%, which includes the 1.45% medicare tax. There is currently a limit on the social security tax portion (6.2% of $106,800--which is $6,621.60), while there is no medicare limitation.
