Deductions & credits

thanks for the reply. I don't believe I entered it wrong, but may have. Bottom line what you are saying is that it is correct for Box 3 to only be the hourly wages with Box 4 using the totals from Boxes 3 and 7 to properly calculate the 6.2% in withholding. If yes, then all looks good as is. 

This makes sense, but I was getting conflicting info online saying the SS tax withholding should only be based on income in Box 3.
