State tax filing

If you had more than one employer and  the total of box 4 (only box 4 not box 6) on all your 2019 W2s  for Social Security is more than $8,239.80 you get the excess back on your tax return.  And it is for each spouse separately, not combined.  

 

Check 1040 Schedule 3 line 11 for it.  Then Schedule 3 goes to 1040 line 18d.

 

For 2020 the max is $8,537.40 on $137,700 of wages.
