The issue that most of these folks are having with it not showing up on line 11, schedule 3..?
SoFar...that situation has almost always been the case of two employers, but both employers using the same Payroll Agent for issuing their W-2 forms. Soemtimes,when the two companies use the payroll agent , both W-2 forms have the same employer EIN (the payroll Agent's EIN)....then that results in the W-2's appearing to come from the same employer...when they really are not.
A few years ago, TTX had a way to indicate it was two different employers using the same payroll agent...and get the SS refund...but that was stopped. Not sure why, but I suspect it was either because there were too many errors with people "claiming" it was the payroll agent issue, or perhaps the IRS wanted TTX to stop allowing e-files with that situation, and the IRS really wanted to see those filings on paper to deal with them separately themselves.
