I suspect either (a) you are misreading TurboTax and that $4,228 was the total benefit and, with some exceptions, only 50% is taxable, or (b) you entered the $4,228 taxable amount into the field asking for the total social security benefits paid (SSA-1099 box 3). As SSA-1099 does not show a taxable amount, I suspect you are in (a).
