Social Security - getting screen saying we paid too much Social Security but it is accurate I believe

After entering my W2 and spouse W2 we are getting the following screen:

    Congrats! Looks like you're getting some cash back.
    Double-check the amount of Social Security tax to make sure we've got the right amounts. Select Back to make any changes to your forms.
    If these amounts are correct, you're getting back as a credit on your return
 
Both my wife and I maxed out Social Security income and the maxed out Social Security taxes ($9932.40 each) look correct according to 2023 limits both on max income and max social security tax.  I can't find any evidence on the forms where we are getting any kind of credit but I could missing it.    Perhaps there is a bug with the check on the specific logic that presents that screen after entering W2s where it is not seeing married filing jointly or something but the other places are doing it correctly?
Any assistance would be helpful.
