Overpayment Social Security due to multiple W2s

[beeplove]

I have overpaid to Social Security in 2018 and 2019 which was due to multiple W2s.

Last year I didn't pay attention, I thought I will get the overpayment with my refund. I would like to verify that. 

In this thread, it was suggested to check Schedule 3. The problem is I don't see Schedule 3 in my return.

How do I verify that I was paid back the overpayment I made.

Also, Do I need to file form-843 separately to claim the overpayment, or TurboTax is supposed to take care of it when I file my tax return.

There were line and schedule changes from 2018 to 2019.

For 2018, If you had more than one employer and  the total of box 4 (only box 4 not box 6) on all your 2018 W2s  for Social Security is more than $7,960.80 you get the excess back on your tax return.  And it is for each spouse separately, not combined.  Check 1040 schedule 5 line 72 for it.  Then schedule 5 goes to 1040 Line 17.

For 2019,

If you had more than one employer and  the total of box 4 (only box 4 not box 6) on all your 2019 W2s  for Social Security is more than $8,239.80 you get the excess back on your tax return.  And it is for each spouse separately, not combined.  Check 1040 Schedule 3 line 11 for it.  Then Schedule 3 goes to 1040 line 18d.
