I had 2 W2s from different companies and paid social security taxes twice does Tuebotax automatically adjust the refund/tax due amount or do I have to reach out to the IRS to get my money back?

The total taxes I paid exceeded the maximum amount. I basically paid double

If you personally received W-2's from two or more separate employers and the total of all Social Security taxes withheld was more than $8,240 then the excess SS taxes withheld will be entered on your tax return as a tax payment.  It will be included with your federal tax refund or it will reduce the federal taxes owed.

The excess SS taxes withheld are reported on Schedule 3, Part II on Line 11.  The totals from Schedule 3 Part II flow to the federal tax return, Form 1040 Line 18d as a tax payment.

Thanks so much. That answers my question and I found it on my return.
