Retirement tax questions

So my billing agency took ~ 20% and then income was reflected in my paystub and taxed as normal. If I add 1099-MISC income to my tax-return I'm essentially being taxed twice on the income. I'll add the 20% as an other expense, but how can I figure out how much I was taxed on the income in my paystub (taxed same as other income) to add this as an expense also?

Also, just tried this and refund is definitely not as much as if I remove the income entirely. I don't see an "already paid taxes on this income" button in the other expenses! 😉
