Get your taxes done using TurboTax
There is not a way for you to pay the social security tax. However, you must keep in mind that your social security benefits will be calculated based on your wages, not the tax paid in on them. So as long as your social security wages, as reported in box 3 on your W-2 form, are correct you will not be penalized for having the wrong amount of social security tax paid in.
Also, when the IRS discovers that the wrong amount of social security tax was withheld, they will likely inquire about that with the employer and demand a corrected form be submitted along with a payment of the taxes due.
