An employer miscalculated the medicare tax withholding by doubling the percentage typically withheld for medicare tax. The error is clearly indicated on the substitute Form W-2 . Form 8959, Part V, line 24 calculates the amount of excess medicare contribution. Because this is an employer error, I should be entitled to add this amount to Line 17 of Form 1040. Is there a way to get the TurboTax software to pick up this number from Form 8959, line 24 and add it into Form 1040, Line 17?
