After you file

One employer took out over $9,114.00 for SS in box 4?  No you can't efile with it wrong.  Put in the max of 9114.  Or check box 3 & 4.  Box 4 should be 6.2% of box 3 up to a max of $9114.00. So take the amount in box 3 and multiply it by .062. If box 4 is more than that you need to get a corrected W2 from your employer. But also go back and double check your W2 entries, you may have entered box 3 & 4 wrong. A lot of people who have asked this found they did enter an amount wrong.

 

How much is in box 3?
