Overpayment of social security tax: common pay agent with 2 legal entities

So I want credit for the overpayment of social security tax.  The 2 W-2 forms have same Fed ID number but slightly different names which means that TT doesn't see these 2 W-2's as different employer.  My employer has said that although the 2 W-2's have common pay agent (and therefore same Fed ID number), they are 2 legal entities and so I should be able to get credit for overpayment in the 1040 form itself.  Any ideas on how to do so in TT?  

Thanks.
