If any one employer withheld
too much social security tax you cannot claim the
excess as a credit against your income tax. Your employer should adjust
the excess for you. If the employer does not adjust the overcollection,
you can use Form 843 to claim a refund. Form 843 Instructions
I have 3 w2s how do I file for a credit for overage of social security on turbo tax?
The way it should work is:
If the two companies for the two W-2s have different EINs and yet the total amount of Social Security withheld across all your W-2s (and Schedule SEs, if any) exceeds $8239.80, then the excess of Social Security tax withheld over $8239.80 should appear on line 11 on Schedule 3 (Form 1040), and on line 8d on form 1040.
Do two or more of the W-2s come from the same employer?
