Retirement tax questions

Check your w-2s for typos.   The amount in box 6 should be .0145 percent of box 5.   Sometimes rounding issues can generate the tax.  Then look at your Earned Income worksheet.  That will show you the total wages and compensation on your return.   The 3rd column is the total.
