You do not have to calculate it if you enter your SSA1099's correctly. The software does all of the calculations for you. If you are filing a joint return, you need to make sure you enter each SSA1099 under the correct spouse's name. And watch carefully for the screen that asks if you had income from a foreign country---that screen messed a lot of people up. Check your Form 1040 and make sure that you see amounts on lines 6a and 6b.
