<prompt> Human: I have a couple questions. 1. Is this fine or should I speak to my employer about the high rate ? At my previous job I was only getting taxed 20, but I did make less than I am now. 2. Is there anything I can do to keep more of my money ? Ive lost over 200 in taxes and thats just for 2 paychecks. Any help would be appreciated, thank you.  <response>: First of all, withholding isnt taxes, you havent lost anything. If you are over-withholding you will get it back when you file your taxes.First check your paystubs, how much are you paying in state, federal etc and see which of them it is you think is higher now, its hard for us to help you without more details, taxes are many different things and the solution will vary.
