TT think's I have excess SS withheld. I have 2 W-2's, but one is mine and one is my wife's. So, no. Anyone else see the same bug?

TT says "Congrats! Looks like you're getting some cash back." and "If these amounts are correct, you're getting back as a credit on your return". But neither my wife nor I had multiple employers. TT clearly shows below these statements that I assigned the W-2's correctly. I checked past years. TT did not file a Schedule 3.

Do you have the max SS on the W2s? Try leaving off the cents. I would delete both of them and re enter them. That should fix it.

It did have cents. It was imported that way. But you were correct. Taking the 40 cents off resulted in TT not showing me that page. Thanks!!!

You do not have to remove the cents. The only bug is that the TurboTax interview tells you that you are getting a credit. You can just ignore that screen. The tax return is correct. As you noted, it does not give you the credit on the return.
