Social Security Overpayment
Hi All,
My employer uses ADP for payroll who is considered my "employer" when it comes to my W-2. My company changed its name halfway through 2019 which caused me to get two W-2s from ADP. However, since my "employer" was still ADP, I overpaid Social Security taxes by over $1,400.
TurboTax noticed this but that's it. TurboTax says to get a refund from my "employer" which would be ADP (not my real-life employer). However, ADP issued me a statement saying that they are not able to refund any excess SS taxes and that under my circumstances, I need to claim it as a credit on my income tax filing and it be refunded directly by the IRS.
My question is: How do I add this to my filing so that I get the amount I overpaid back? I can't seem to find any option within TurboTax to add this credit.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Best,
Dan
