That makes sense, "it only calculates what you enter".  However, I downloaded one W2 form me, and one for my spouse.  Not sure what else I entered.

 

When I return to the online filing, here's what the top line says (with personal information removed)

 

All your tax forms in one place

Upload your tax documents and we'll autofill your return

    W2_%$%$_CompanyName
  •  
    W2_S$%$_SecondCompany

 

It shows two separate W2s for two people.  Whatever else seems so obvious to everyone replying to my post I'd be happy to acknowledge once you all show me where I was supposed to look to see the W2s specifically assigned to one person.  I'm a data analyst, and I review numbers in systems.  I use SQL, Tableau, MS Access, R, & PowerBI. I trace data when I see errors in ultimate calculations. Only now do I know that the places my data showed up TurboTax is not what should have been expected.  I didn't previously, but now have the instinct that a social security credit is probably a red flag.  Not sure how one would know that when relying on a system that suggests it is %100 accurate.
