Thank you for the response. Just wanting to clarify 3 things and ask 1 additional question:
1) I did work for 2 different legal entities within my employer - each with a unique FEIN. The problem is because the company uses a common agent tax filing, the W2s reflect the common agent FEIN - not the individual FEINs associated with the 2 legal entities
2) My employer has provided documentation of the 2 legal entities and FEINs and stated they are following the correct IRS guidelines for common agent filing (which requires the 2 W2s reflect the common agent FEIN, not the legal entity FEINs - that is why TT won't recognize the excess contribution)
3) Box 4 for each of the 2 W2s has the actual amount withheld when I was part of that legal entity's FEIN so neither exceed the $8239.80 limit and each are 6.2% of the gross wages earned within that legal entity. In aggregate for the common filing agent, the total exceeds $8238.80 and that is why I'm due that overage.
With all that said, is there anything else I need to do or just submit and then file the form 843 separately by mail?
