Take a look at line
71 of your Form 1040 to see if the excess amount has already been taken into
account.
If your situation was due to having multiple employers
during the year, the excess amount is automatically included on line 71 of Form
1040. When this happens, the refund
meter updates on the overall entry from the W-2, so it does not make an obvious
change.
Use these steps while you are working in your tax return to
Preview your Form 1040 and take a look at line 71.
